Volkswagen Vento 1.2 TSI (Pt.3) Road Test - Turbocharged, 175Nm of Torque, It Drives Like a 1.8L

[@Michael-kz5nc]

Probably the best car in its segment for high speed stability and performance

[@b1azingfires]

We have a few vento 1.2 that retrofitted paddle shift steering from gls auto usj, also known as Vw accessories MY on fb ☺️

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hmmm, very interesting. Do they use new parts or old parts and how much does it cost?

[@b1azingfires]

YS Khong Driving should be around 1k plus...

[@eddychan8316]

I saw the post just wonder does it improves the car performance?

[@nickloong]

See that you are breaking down your reviews into segments nowadays, more focused and less rushing. 😁👍

[@YSKhongDriving]

Yup, if video is too long, people don't like to watch.

[@nickloong]

😅👌Yup, things do get boring if too long winded.

[@timothychienyunchew8365]

Such a shame! Why it was discontinued in production?? Its better than vios and city anytime!!

[@ming6371]

How is the NVH of this car at highway speeds? I heard the motorbike passing, and worried that it would be poor in sound insulation

[@YSKhongDriving]

It's a moot point, because this is the end of the line for the Beetle. No more production

[@AdiAfzalAhmad]

Wondering about the same thing.

[@joeblack2316]

Good review....

[@YSKhongDriving]

Thank you. Please stay for our other videos.

[@laucy2516]

How about Peugeot 208 1.2 pure tech?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Have not tested that as yet.

[@yongwaikeat9126]

Heard that this 1.2 can keep pace with 2.4/2.5L engine and handles well / better than Camry / accord but why so many people didn’t know about this and most people thought big cc is the way to go, keeping tune for the Genting climb, thanks!

[@YSKhongDriving]

Thanks for watching - good comment. Yes the Vento is very under stated. Big surprise to many.

Forever Young back in 2013 one of my friend drove a polo 1.4 tsi reached jejantas from jb, took us driving an Altis 1.8 to reach there with a difference of +-40 mins late, they finish their coffee and eaten some me rebus while we just reach jejantas, now Altis got higher spec, more comfortable, more spacious but I already driving Altis really hard and the polo driver has already freshen up, now who’s tired... maybe I’m a slower driver and they don’t understand why I drive slow like an old man. Driving an Altis at 140km/h with high rpm it’s engine is screaming most of the time and hard to accelerate/ increase speed even more, what more to overtake and felt floaty at 160km/h, give me no confident to go even higher speed, now I understand why conti car drivers are notoriously fast, cos’ now I’m one of them 😁

[@unintentionallyfire]

Uncle when you review passat 2.0 TSI 220hp?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Planning. Waiting for car arrangements. Please stay tuned.

[@johnning1996]

i Uncle YS Khong, can you do a review of Kia Rio YB 6 speed?

[@YSKhongDriving]

We are trying to make some arrangements

[@luqzaidi7007]

Now, can't wait for the Part 4 !

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha, stay tuned.

[@montysharma1403]

Hello Uncle Where is Pt.2 ?? Pt.1,3,4 is there but haven't found 2

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hi. It was removed for some technical reason.

[@junweishee7605]

Uncle YS Khong, when u entering the corner, should the leg still on the break or break before entering the corner will be more safety?

[@YSKhongDriving]

You should brake on the straight and gently accelerate through the corner after you pass the apex. That is the general rule. More advanced drivers do some braking in mid corner to help turn the car, but one should not brake into a corner

[@chowkinkeet]

Hi Uncle YS Khong, can you do a review of Hyundai Ioniq? Wish to see how hybrid car performs when go uphill

[@YSKhongDriving]

That car is quite old, may not be available.

[@weicheanyong8952]

Volkswagen polo 1.6 (join model) please 😍

[@YSKhongDriving]

We will try, since so many asking.

[@leezy06440]

@@YSKhongDriving please do! really wondering the different between 1.2tsi...althought it might not be much~

[@ragavs9323]

We are still waitin uncle.

[@MH-tg2ng]

Is this 7 speed dry clutch reliable? I heard only their 6speed wet clutch seems to be reliable like in golf gti n passat 2.0

[@unintentionallyfire]

Golan H wet clutch more reliable but dry clutch okay nowadays

[@YSKhongDriving]

Zachary ONG has replied - exactly.

[@MH-tg2ng]

@@unintentionallyfire i see.. Thx!

[@MH-tg2ng]

But 1 thing to say la.. Dsg shifting is so nice n fast. Love it.. Way better than any auto trany / cvt

[@firephoto6586]

1.6 polo please

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hmmm, so many requests.

[@selespeed3]

Better than e36? Small engine low torque

[@nyaquafarmchannel8531]

Yes ofxoz,vento is small engine but hi torque

[@selespeed3]

Me Ga high torque? Anything less than 200 is small.

[@nyaquafarmchannel8531]

@@selespeed3 Yes anyway vento is 1.2tsi but the torque more high then 1.8 liter NA engine

[@YSKhongDriving]

It is a nice car: will suit some people, especially those who want a small car and affordable but with some decent power and acceleration. The Vento is current, while an E36 is twenty years or so old. I have an E36, right now waiting for a new clutch pump to be fixed, so it cannot move.

[@selespeed3]

@@YSKhongDriving that clutch pump is unbelievably cheap (only RM90 samko) my toyota car owner friend says he cannot believe it. it's a very good pump!

[@sharulbahari3250]

Hello My Friends Mr Khong.How are you?

[@nyaquafarmchannel8531]

Dsg powerful

[@YSKhongDriving]

Yes
