Toyota Hilux 2.8 Rogue, 2020, Genting Test Drive | YS Khong Driving

The 2020 Hilux has just been launched a few minutes ago by UMWToyota. Here we go with the video that many of our viewers have been waiting for - the Genting HillClimb
Remember, of course, that it is a truck, and it is not as agile as a car. Still, it can give a jolly good account of itself.
The top-of-the-range 2.8 has become more car-like, with Toyota Safety Sense, and more power.
Through sheer coincidence, our test car came from United Star Corporation, our friendly Toyota dealer in Aman Suria.

[@YSKhongDriving]

I am sure he can handle it very well.

[@khairilanwarismayudin8374]

500nm of torque with the right gearing, right tyre will be an advantage when off road and the softer suspension will also be better for the passengers due to less bouncing but usually at the expense of load carrying.

[@YSKhongDriving]

I am ok with a bit softer suspension because my truck never carries a heavy load.

[@gilapunyaorang]

My body automatically swerve to the left & right while watching uncle driving the car as if I'm inside the car itself hahaha...ha.

[@weisheng2238]

Hello Mister, I’ve watched your videos for a while now, your teat drive review has been really great and informative to me. May I ask how does is the driving experience compared to driving a Ford Ranger Wildtrak? Been thinking which one to choose from. I like the looks of Ford Ranger Wildtrak (especially the 2022 one) but I also prefer the durability and reliability of which Toyota usually offers (cause I’ve been hearing stories of how Ford have many weird weird issues from those car workshop foreman), what do you think?😃

[@YSKhongDriving]

I think each one has its strong points.

Hi Uncle, can you test Subaru WRX?

[@ashraf2118]

Uncle, im a bit in dilemma to choose between triton adventure x and this hilux rogue. Overall which one is worth to buy ?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Normslly you cannot go wrong with a Toyota

[@SAINHAQQ]

If given a choice, which one do you favor, Ford Raptor 2.8 or Toyota Hilux Rogue 2.8? I understand you've tested both.

[@YSKhongDriving]

There is no Ford Raptor 2.8. It is a 2.0. The Raptor looks are stunning, while the Hilux offers durability. The Raptor's special suspension is great, but the cost us also high. The target market is different.

[@kean-leongang1167]

Uncle Khong. Is it true that the Hilux in the mid east market comes gun tarot mountings as standard?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Not too sure, but I am sure there will be somebody who can fit one for you. Afghanistan too, hahaha.

[@ycs1466]

Uncle, u should "alphatech" remap your old 2.8 hilux. If remap can easily get 250hp, if chip can get around 190hp.

[@YSKhongDriving]

I like to keep it stock for reliability

[@pukiong]

Wish i can afford this 2.8 hilux

[@HR15DE]

yeah i always wondered how these would handle on curvy roads. they start understeering very early at slightly aggresive steering input. front is not eager to turn. interesting stuff. 2.1 ton vehicle.

[@manroshansingh]

Modern cars are designed to understeer instead of oversteering because it's easier to control a vehicle that is understeering. These things can handle well if you know how to balance the weight transfer. However, there is a big risk of roll over if an accident was to occur

[@HR15DE]

@@manroshansingh it oversteered numorus times when ys got on gas lol. what i mean is that given slight steering angle and tires start making sounds already. that means vehicle is pretty close to its limits of turning already. but other smaller cars have way higher limits. design has nothing to do with it. its literally physical limitation that this car is 2.1 ton and has tires for high load and suspention system is not good for corners. i wanted to see the diffrence and now ive seen it. not everyday you see a guy cornering with a hilux lol

[@shairolazhar]

walauwehh... uncle oso kanjo with hailakk....

[@BorneonPigeon]

I watched both test Triton Athlete and Hilux Rogue. Hilux handle okay lor. The handling of triton Athlete is surprising. Btw how come yr assistant didnt hear the tyres screeching?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Did they squeal?

[@simplesimpleman]

Uncle how does sequential shift work?Like manual? Or just another version of auto?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Another version of auto, but you shift it manually. Just another fancy term.

[@elven628]

Hi uncle, still waiting for the KIA GRAND CARNIVAL 2017- current model Genting run 😁

[@YSKhongDriving]

Have not been able to get vehicle. And now with cmco, I am staying home.

[@arcturo]

Hello Mr. Khong, in a case like this when the tires continually protest, if you change these to tires with a higher speed index, for example, from H to V, could this change be good? would it be safer to drive?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Then you have to check the load bearing properties. It may not be able to bear loads.

[@arcturo]

@@YSKhongDriving I understand, I take advantage that I have another question about the load index. In Colombia the streets are in very bad condition, there are holes everywhere, and it is usual for the tires to end with bumps. Can a tire on a car with a higher load index help prevent these bumps?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Yes. Higher load index means more sidewall reinforcement. However, the best way is to try to avoid the potholes. I also suspect perhaps the tyre quality may be different from what we get here. We also have bad roads here, but dont have the type of problems you mention.

[@hashimmanan8146]

When you use the sports mode, does the gear stays at the selected gear all the way?

Never really thought Toyota is that good and I always thought Toyota is DUSTBIN car .

[@SpiritualityLife77]

I love Hilux but after my friend's Hilux turned upside down last year. it makes me worried about getting one

[@YSKhongDriving]

Probably driver error.

[@omegabulldog5001]

I have been driving Hiluxes for more than 20+ years both on road and off road and most of the time flips are driver error. Note:- it's a truck, not a sports car so you should handle it as such, watch your cornering speed, line and traction and a Hilux will be good to you.

Road to 100 k subs sir Khong Congrats ❤️

[@YSKhongDriving]

The two are so distant from each other. The fact that you are considering the Hilux means you probably need it. Whatever it is, go get the one you need the most. To me, the Hilux is a good strong vehicle, oerhaps more suitable and more durable considering your traffic, and the condition of your roads. It is also a lot of car for the same price. Ask my friend Vince Pornelos who is with the motoring media over in your country. He might be a good guy to get advice from. Anyway, thanks for supporting our channel. I would love to come over again some day, when this pandemic is more under control.

[@johnnovia6593]

What the highest gear you used in manual mode, during the uphill drive, Uncle?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Third.

[@4G12]

The problem with all these brake based traction and stability control systems is that they can be hell on the brakes. Don't be surprised if the brake fluid boils after extended drives in harsh conditions where the brakes are often applied as the systems desperately try to keep the car within permitted margins. Half hour of relying on TC to negotiate harsh off road situations with plenty of wheel off the ground scenarios, especially in HOT Malaysian weather, is very likely to cook the brakes alive.
