Kia Carnival 2022 Genting Hill Climb - Enough power to make it to the top? / YS Khong Driving

[@agmsvc2302]

Korean cars has been going better and better.. forget about resale value.. just think of technology like European cars.. Way to go uncle Khong.. Salute👍

[@jejaione5098]

Congratulations KIA.. no sound screaming gearbox like Honda Accord .KIA did a very good job 👍👍👍

[@praveen6862]

Honda have sound screaming.

[@l.k.y.6929]

It is not cvt, how come can get screaming sound

[@caldinagt4club]

it uses 8 speed conventional automatic..not CVT like Honda, Toyota, Nissan except Mazda...fuckkk CVT

[@dopodman]

It's all about the driver man ..... It's how well he handled the vehicle .... take care Mr Khong.

[@SP-Steel]

I never knew a brick on wheels could carry such speeds around twisty roads. It just shows how far car makers have come. Great driving as usual. Drive safe, stay safe uncle!

[@hamzahrashid1]

carry what speeds?

[@halimahmad1022]

It’s not the car. It’s the driver.

[@aminabusamah9037]

I just so admire Uncle Khong who is just not only knows how to drive but also understand the car very well. Knows the ability of the car is also important in driving because some people just thinking of stepping the gas without analysing what are the consequences from their attitude of driving and either the car could afford it or not. Stay safe uncle , love to watch your videos which full with knowledges.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Thank you Amin.

[@KM-uz4ln]

This uncle very polite, keep saying THANK YOU. 😊 hopefully if rest of the users have this type driving attitude, we will have less road violence. there are family's waiting at home, all drive safely.

[@zek9897]

Very impressive. You drive it bravely and gently in wet road and rainy day

[@abdulhalimabdullah7206]

Bcoz..this hero 5 times mlysia rally champion...good job bossku..

[@saifulradzi8031]

It has been decided. Saya akan buat koleksi KiA. Kereta pertma saya ialah Cerato 1.6 2nd hand. Next insyaAllah Grand Carnival.

[@diesturozhi1367]

Kia sorento dulu boss. Powerfulll.😊

[@farizfauzi4157]

I also notice, very much less body roll compared to Alphard

[@alphazuluosprey1708]

I agree, I drove an FWD MPV before and it has a tendency to understeer on these corners. Just gotta drive 'calmer' on these hills.

[@TheVallum]

Does it hesitate with full seats occupied & few luggage, in hill climb (asking abt FWD)

[@TheVallum]

@Siddharth in India, thrs "Toyota Innova" (RWD) Mahindra Scorpio (RWD) Mahindra XUV700 AWD (optional)

[@farizfauzi4157]

Good idea... Need The Special Episode of Kia Carnival Up Genting with full seat🤣

[@rosdiidris547]

Padu mantap Kia grand carnival 2022 awesome 🥰

[@inspiredlife9315]

thanks for this review. possibly on its way to be the mpv of the year. eyeing this to replace my 1st gen Carnival/Ria

[@remyKhuong]

I own 3 week ago, how perfect is Kia Carnival, so much feature nowaday.

[@muhammadfadzuanbinrazali6219]

I will buy this MPV soon, feeling exciting to drive it

[@YSKhongDriving]

You can buy it through us.

[@emeldaentelaajang4097]

Great video. Will be driving this baby when I'm in KL. With 6 of my girlfriends. Hope my drive goes smoothly. Thanks for the video ☺️

[@YSKhongDriving]

Oh? You coming to KL?

[@loudnessjr]

i love that the korean still make diesel and paddle shifter cars

[@YSKhongDriving]

Yes, we appreciate that too.

[@speednan]

sampai skrg saya masih lagi pakai kia karnival kx 2019. so far ok . engine pun power. tapi kalau bab sparepart tu mmg mahal cokkkkk... so fikir2kanlah. byk lagi la aku benda yg aku nak cakap tapi sampai di sini saja hahahahaha...

[@viver4670]

Its nice to see a professional Malaysian driver provide car reviews. It would be a good to get your perspective since you are a professional of other stuff on the car when you are doing the review such as: Steering Feel Throttle Response Brake Feel (I know its a bit hard to do with a hill climb) Body Roll Transmission Shifts (Speed and Smoothness)

[@YSKhongDriving]

Will take into consideration; but being able to drive it at that pace means it is a good package, doesn't it? Steering feel has no meaning of the car cannot take the corners or feels like a steamroller.

[@alwihazlin8226]

you have that guts YS

[@sulf49]

At last, KIA Carnival tested on Genting Road. This is the best MPV that you can buy, why because I've own one.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Excellent!

[@jrusop1098]

Nice uncle, gear 8speed AT just guna 3rd gear only,. amazing, kalau CVT sure meraung engine 😁. Like my Kia Rio 6speed with AMT naik Cameron always used 3rd gear jarang guna 2nd gear or 1st gear walaupun engine Rio 1.4L 100Hp 133Nm tapi smooth sahaja sebab mungkin gear guna 6speed. Lalu bonggol pun stay 3rd gear different dengan model Picanto 4speed lalu bonggol always turun 1st gear. 😅

[@amybaldwinwest6486]

Great job! Thanks!

[@deankamaruddin8211]

i always enjoys watching your review ,keep it up.and stay healthy.u r our motoring darling

[@farizfauzi4157]

The Real Showcase of driving skills uncle! I've driven a few MPV before, even the Alphard and Vellfire of my family members. One thing for sure, they are not a vehicle for Genting climb.. feels like sitting on the egg shells and a chilling sweat down all over me🤣.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha.

[@jesselogan92]

There will be 8 seater arrangements here.. Nice...

[@iranos9945]

gosh kia carnival can also be driven on the road as a sports car, i love it . 😄

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha, Nooooo! Ir is not a sports car

[@彭刚毅-w1s]

so exciting to watch from the beginning till the end

[@djtan3313]

Kia these days! Amazing!

[@alexlee815]

After watching the previous video where uncle YS Khong drove this new Carnival, was waiting for this Genting Hill Climb... and here it is as promised! *thumbs up*. I'm in love with this Carnival, even more after watching each review about this MPV (or GUV), definitely a very respectable alternative to Alphard, Velfire, Odyssey, Elgrand, etc. Since this is a huge vehicle, I am actually interested to know uncle YS Khong's thoughts and opinion on its braking capabilities, especially during down hill. Can have additional video clip or comments on your down hill ride experience please uncle YS Khong?

[@YSKhongDriving]

You can talk to me and ask me more. 0163350609. Braking is not an issue, and there is plenty of braking power. Of course you are not supposed to drive crazy going down hill. On one part of our clinb, we went down a steep slope quite fast, and the brakes never failed.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Yes, as promised. And Kia was very kind to let me have the Carnival again. It really is an eye opener insofar as MPV is concerned.

[@williamtang6320]

Hi Mr khong, normally i use hill descent control when going down deep slope like genting road, understand from the sales representative for 11 seater model, no such descent control, just wonder whether need to brake a lot to drive deep slope or easy to drive down hill. Thkz in advance for advice

[@farhanjaafar2434]

The cabin seems extremely quite, nice review Uncle 👍

[@gregsantos9731]

Hi Sir Khong! Another nice car Kia Carnival review you have there ha, i really like the way you reviews car aside from you having a nice, pleasant spirit, anyways, i 've been in Malaysia but only in Kotakinabalu, very nice people too. 😊

[@boonhanhoo1825]

Hi Mr Khong, the car is almost perfect. I guess if have a video can show how carnival parking in various big mall such as mid valley, one u or Sunday pyramid would be interesting.

[@YSKhongDriving]

For big vehicles, parking is a challenge sometimes, especially in places where the lots are small, and the car in the next lots are slightly out if centre.

[@M_H_H]

This carnival is not as big as you think. Most suv are wider than this mpv. Even crossover like macan is wider

[@muhamadsyahmijamaluddin581]

Fuh, 18min dh sampai atas

[@sharifasz]

Damn, he was fast..

[@nazirwajab7653]

Finally....been waiting for this video. But I am guessing the camera mounting does not help us the viewer to the true feeling of the whole ride. It seems to shake a lot. But anyway I can assume this giant behave really well up the mountain from the way you react.

[@jinsonglee6456]

I drove the older gen up with 5 adults, 4 kids and light luggage... Driving is a breeze... Effortless

[@diesturozhi1367]

Tork sgt kuat mudah sahaja cut kereta lain. Pernah drve cameron? Mudah sahaja overtake camry dan alphard.

[@Laughingorcorp]

I was a user of Kia carnival first gen....emm...a User at back seat😄 as a kid. I really like how the space and the middle seat can turn to face backward. This is amazing. Try Last gen on a trip in Australia fitting 7pax easily. Power enough to cruise below speed limit. Looking forward this 👌

Uncle so fierce on the road. 🤣 Anyway nice review

[@husnizaim4518]

Hopefully 7 seater option would be available. Hardly need the last row. Better to just get rid of it to save space and fuel

[@YSKhongDriving]

Yes, 8 seater option.

[@nyckylim]

Hi, love your reviews and your joyous character ! How does this compare to a Vellfire on the climb and handling ?

[@YSKhongDriving]

We hv not tested the Vellfire so cannot tell.

[@nyckylim]

@@YSKhongDriving I was watching the Sorento video with Kenneth 2 years ago. Wonder if the latest sorento is using the same chassis as the old generation. And if it is, how would you compare the handling of the sorento vs the Carnival ?

[@harvard_lee]

What an Mpv with pedal shifter!

[@Laughingorcorp]

Actually useful when passing front car.

[@BMW-whatever]

Yep, going well when it's empty, it would be very interesting with 11persons on board and drive the same road.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Of course with 11 people it would behave differently. Maybe we should do a drive ya?

[@BMW-whatever]

@@YSKhongDriving , yeah, it would be very interesting. And the same time show fuel consumption please.

[@joshuakhaipinchong928]

Impressive

[@prv7_]

[@KepalaSneaker]

Owh.. My honda Odyssey also has paddle shifter.... But i always forget that i have them.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hill Descent Control is only for very steep slopes and will deactivate at speeds above 20 or so kmh. These slopes are around 5 to 10 percent generally and so you do not need HDC. Our steepest climbs are Genting, Camerons and perhaps Kinabalu in EM, and you will not require HDC in any of these situations, so don't worry about the vehicle not having HDC. The chances are you will never need it at all

[@roykoong1]

If possible Would like to get it to be my first family car

[@nasxixxvii449]

Hi uncle,can you share some advance/pro tips on driving rwd and fwd cars 😁

[@YSKhongDriving]

Sure 👍

Love your video uncle, just that the sometimes the shaking can be quite dizzy hahaha

[@YSKhongDriving]

Sorry.

@@YSKhongDriving no worries uncle, it's a small issue. ❤

[@leows758]

No car temperature mentioned. This is the most important point.

Because there was nothing to mention. Temperature was normal. This is a diesel turbo, 440 Nm of torque, no problem climbing this hill.

I think if not mistaken the Citroen Grand C4 picasso/spacetourer also had paddle shifter

Mantapp

[@sebastiantay6745]

Please do a comparison between the starex 11 seater with full passengers up genting

[@YSKhongDriving]

Cannot get Starex.

[@manlok7380]

2:05 : Y2012 Citroen C4 Picasso MPV segment was introduced paddle shift gear. It is 11 years ago.

[@YSKhongDriving]

The 4 stroke engine was made 100 years ago, but still using in new cars. Same with electric cars - they were around 100 years ago too. There is mothing new, just variations and packages that make a vehicle suitable for some users. There is no single car that suits everybody, which is why the auto undustry is so vibrant and interesting.

[@manlok7380]

But I like yr review on this new Kia carnival. It is in list to have it someday

[@ProtonOnlineBumiputera]

This video recorded after or before you come to aiman motor?😆 I saw you at my showroom on Monday.

Mesti susah sikit lah, kereta panjang dan lebar

[@FrancisFoo1989]

MR KHONG, why camera so shaky??

[@YSKhongDriving]

Maybe too much air or road too rough

How is the FC?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Very good. Had the vehicle for 5 days, still on half tank, and we went up Genting 3 times.

Drive slower.

Hey Uncle, I Just picked up the petrol version, MY21! Have you tested the petrol version? I am really enjoying it so far. Love how it doesn't look like a van, or feel like one. 😊
