Cherry have bought the hearts of local customers with latest lineup of Jaecoo & Omoda. But it's just half of the battle. Prove to us that you are reliable with the after sales services experience (maintenance cost, availability of parts etc) in the next 5-10 years then you'll no longer hear the people barking about "no resale value"
Hahaha - so there will be some who will wait longer before trying a new brand. That is also fine, cos it takes all kinds of people to make up the world. It is your right to choose.
fair comment and review but the best uncle in town! question - would changing the tire to a well known brand will make the handling better? or the gain will be marginal? thanks for your opinion and the test drive!
Great handling with weather yet scary with wide angle cam everything looks super fast. Overall satisfying watch this helps me decide between x70 or J7. With boarder back tyre +1 inch extra rims around be just nice. Give size and presence look.
Thanks for reviewing the car up Genting. Really appreciate it as I am in the market for a car of this class. In terms of ride and handling, how does it compare to the 2025 Proton X70?
I think it something to do with auto headlight that goes with dashboard screen. Normally the headlight and the screen will go auto dark mode once pass late evening or night time , pass thru tunnel or flyover under the bridge and sometime rain wheather with dark sky. Sometimes the sensor couldnt know whether is day or night time cause of the sky weather during rain
depends on the lights, when towards dawn or low light the screens will switch to dark mode so your eye wont hurt. it is very sensative so sometime during a cloudy day passing over bridge the car will deemed that you are at low light and turn to dark mode
Thanks for sharing. I Enjoyed the virtual drive 😅 Uncle can have another drive using their auto DCT instead of manual shift. With passengers😊 BTW, does the manual gear shifted by itself after certain high RPM?
I'm more interested in the J7 AWD off-road capabilities and fuel mileage, I've been test driven before on a short distance on-road while on bustling city so unable to really test the car.
it is almost everything just as tiggo 7pro....power was surprisingly 'mengejutkan' as the HP n torque came with flying colors despite 4cyl 1.6T ...,,was just wondering are the brakes on better par of power n saturation ,,coz on the tiggo the brakes are not that pleasing..
From your reaction, this Jeacoo J7 doesn't perform as well as the brand that have symmetrical all-wheel drive. I think I know which car brand to choose. Anyway Thanks for this short clips (especially both AWD cars are drove at raining condition). 2 thumbs up Mr. YS Khong & Thks again
@@joliang6109, I don't know it's OK to share over YS page. Anyway I'll give u some clue 1. Most of this brand's car are majority AWD or they call it symmetrical all-wheel drive. 2. The model that I did select is about RM20k more expensive compare with J7 AWD model 3. And this brand is a Japanese brand. The model is also CBU (not like Jeacoo CKD)
dont you have any sensation feeling the car gonna flip over 😁...every time i drive an suv n treat it like a hatchback the scare of flip over always make me scare.
Did you say " 7 to 8 L per 100km"? That's better than most Honda accord sedan, and that thing is big and luxurious. Is this in Singapore or you in Malaysia?
I think overall the J7 is quite a good buy for the price. To improve the ride, anti roll bars could be installed and it cost less than 2k. But again, SUV is not really meant to take sharp corners in high speed , unless u r trained like YS…😂
Unker YS, I just have time to watch whole video and the car definitely delivers an awesome ride for a daily car.. However 1 things I found out very ignore is the display centre huge screen.. When Unker YS was having fun with the car, that huge display keeps showing White and black screen... It's very ignoring disturbing during driving experience.. Not sure this feature can OFF it while driving ❓🤔
The sensor is very sensitive (I mean good), and it is very helpful whenever you enter/exit tunnel/shade etc. You can always set to Auto/Day/Night mode to your liking.
just need to get use to it, been driving for a month plus i dont find it annoying or disturbing. Infact, i appreciate the big "IPAD" as it let me look further in waze, and during tight corner or space with the 540 camera
@@naga2015kkagree..sometime we need to yolo. I will buy this and use for 10 years rather than sit in miserable high value car. after 10 years, donate to someone or send it into junkyard. I did not sell it, so no loss here 😂😂
Many factors need to come together to make any model become market leader, so I cannot answer you on that. Many early adopters have taken delivery though, so I would say it has a good chance.
SOUNDS A BIT WORRYING NOW THAT A 200 PLUS HORSEPOWER TWO TON VEHICLE IS NOW AVAILABLE TO THE MASSES, THEY DON"T HAVE THE DRIVING SKILL OF OUR DEAR YS, WHAT MORE WITH THE TAIL-GATERS, NEED TO EDUCATE THE BUYERS OF THESE POERRFUL VEHICLES THE FINER POINTS OF DRIVING A 200 PLUS HP CAR, ...

Ni baru betul2 review bawa naik genting terus. Org lain tak buat uncle otai sanggup buat. Terbaik 👍👍

The difference with Jaecoo is that, Jaecoo has a manufacturing plant in Shah Alam if not mistaken. So, spare parts issue shouldn’t be a concern
Chery masuk ckd terus. Haval: bapak sial i was her all this while but i apa lancau pun tade
Delulu
Been a big FAN! and heading the best driving uncle in town advice. "if can get awd get awd" booked an awd!
My right leg keeps pressing the brake even though I'm sitting on my couch 🛋️ in my bedroom 😁 while enjoying this video.
Hahaha!
🎉thanks for reviewing the car. I saw several on the road, and it looks good 👍
Wondering how it compares to the X70 2025 that you just drove recently?
this one more stable..just come back from x70 2025 ys khong genting run..u can switch too. this one more refine than x70
This better off.
This has AWD
Understeer quite a bit. But love the look, engine spec & price
dah tunggu lama Uncle review👍the best.
TQ
fair comment and review but the best uncle in town! question - would changing the tire to a well known brand will make the handling better? or the gain will be marginal? thanks for your opinion and the test drive!
Good tyres always help
Anti roll bars would help as well….
Hello Mr Khong as always your skill in driving amaze me. Btw the steering looks bigger and as you steer it looks a little bit clumsy. 😊
Hahaha, didn't notice the steering size as particularly big, so it should be okay.
Lol... The summary is already there... 22:52
"Overall, is it a nice SUV? I think it's ok la...." 😅😅😅
Great handling with weather yet scary with wide angle cam everything looks super fast. Overall satisfying watch this helps me decide between x70 or J7. With boarder back tyre +1 inch extra rims around be just nice. Give size and presence look.
x70 boring already..better buy this jaeco.
We were using narrow angle, by the way
Thanks for reviewing the car up Genting. Really appreciate it as I am in the market for a car of this class. In terms of ride and handling, how does it compare to the 2025 Proton X70?
This one is more premium, sp cosrs a bit more, and power figures are higher, 19 inch wheels, panoramic roof.
I expect this to feel/drive v similar to x70... Agreed, Uncle?
Jaecoo J7 AWD vs Chery Tiggo 8 pro ? From your experience which would be your choice? 😊
Jaecoo la.. Premium brand.
Unker. how would the car drive up the hill if it was left in AUTO? Would it shift correctly?
If you ddrive slowly it would be fine. For going fast there might be some gear hunting
Steady Unker👍👍👍💪
Uncle Khong when can test drive haval h6😊
why the screen and dashboard goes light and dark background changes many times?
I think it something to do with auto headlight that goes with dashboard screen. Normally the headlight and the screen will go auto dark mode once pass late evening or night time , pass thru tunnel or flyover under the bridge and sometime rain wheather with dark sky. Sometimes the sensor couldnt know whether is day or night time cause of the sky weather during rain
The two screens kept switching from dark mode to day mode 😮. So annoying! Why does it do that?
I think the system gives some warning now and then.
depends on the lights, when towards dawn or low light the screens will switch to dark mode so your eye wont hurt. it is very sensative so sometime during a cloudy day passing over bridge the car will deemed that you are at low light and turn to dark mode
@@龍仕煒yea that kinda got annoying for me. Hope theres a way to turn the auto mode off/on
Hi Uncle YS, how does it do compared to Subaru XV in terms of handling?
I believe his face reaction between the car/suv tested can know which car is more fun and better handling. 😏
The Jaecoo has more power.
Thanks Uncle @@YSKhongDriving
Need some Pirelli tyres , or continentals .Great driving. Good value suv
Thanks for sharing. I Enjoyed the virtual drive 😅
Uncle can have another drive using their auto DCT instead of manual shift. With passengers😊
BTW, does the manual gear shifted by itself after certain high RPM?
Yes, shifts up by itself
Uncle! U drive so fast!
Really? No lah, sometimes we speed up the camera a little bit for dramatic effect.
@@YSKhongDriving 🤣
@@YSKhongDriving😂😂 you are overtaking everything in sight!! that's not the camera😂😂😂
Yin Swan mate.
Omoda C9.
That's the one with the sufficient amount of power.
Check it out soon.
I'm more interested in the J7 AWD off-road capabilities and fuel mileage, I've been test driven before on a short distance on-road while on bustling city so unable to really test the car.
Wonderful , wonderful , wonderful ❗🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
You go boy. Drive it like you stole it.

@@joliang6109 To me, handling & safety come 1st.
@@kcyip1subaru forester doesnt perform this good especially power wise. The only brag with it is the AWD. Build quality jaecoo wins
What is ground clearance of this car?
nvh in this car ? insightful video as always!
NVH is excellent
Wow!
🥰 finally, tqtq Unker YS 👍👍
Why the theme keep changing from white to black
??
@@YSKhongDriving IHU tu. Bila u drive, kejap black kejap white theme
Yes noticed that too...is it changing according to the surroundings?
I dont know how the pricing work? Just a chinese ce tric numbers witht he 88888?
I think it is well-priced.
Nice driving uncle
Thanks!
dont you have any sensation feeling the car gonna flip over 😁...every time i drive an suv n treat it like a hatchback the scare of flip over always make me scare.
Every vehicle has its limitations and each has its own limit.
Having a good feel, and a bit of skill and experience helps.
Depends how u drive it and at what angle u be going into the corner… like YS said, skills help.
Me too, when I switched to d x70 lol. Get less grippy tyres..... lol
Uncle,, why no genting ride driving chery tiggo 7 pro?
No car from them as yet.
@@YSKhongDrivingBasic Bj 40... 😂
Did you say " 7 to 8 L per 100km"? That's better than most Honda accord sedan, and that thing is big and luxurious. Is this in Singapore or you in Malaysia?
Malaysia
not bad this car has the power to climb quickly enough
Can you try a Jaecoo 2WD climb to see the difference ?
Buat untuk GS3 emzoom pulak please🫡
omada carefull driving uncle.. need to check rear wheel arm later tyre come😂 out
I think overall the J7 is quite a good buy for the price. To improve the ride, anti roll bars could be installed and it cost less than 2k. But again, SUV is not really meant to take sharp corners in high speed , unless u r trained like YS…😂
from uncle’s experience, which SUV gives the best handling?
People buy SUVs for many reasons.
Haha… in my opinion, Touareg… but KS’s opinion is more valid than mine
Too skilful
Bos your driving style like rally driver la.
I've never seen this unker struggling to attack genting corners this scary. Probably was due to J7 soft suspension and super light steering.
The J7 is set up for comfort, so will have a little more roll.
Please review Neta X
Wow ❗ 😍😍😍😍😍
I like the car but i doubt its chasis is as tahan as subaru
That gearbox needs an update with paddle shifters
Unker YS, I just have time to watch whole video and the car definitely delivers an awesome ride for a daily car..

Cannot really judge because the car speed is not shown when going up the hills. Can only "eat wind"
Hahaha, good try!
How is the sound proof sir?
Good
Looks like you are not so confident with J7 compare to other SUV then you drove to GH.
I always keep quite a lot in reserve when I drive.
I want this car, but omoda c9 launched today, whole different level of car 😅
but c9 is more expensive..it is definitely better product.
@@rabbitcat5371yeah just top up a bit, u can get a better package tbh
Many choices in today's market.
hmm..... Jaecoo J7 is basically a higher-priced Tiggo 7?
More premium build
that 19:59 corning , waaaaa
The NVH is not so great I guess. I hear the overtaking car very clearly 😂
Pls test the tiggo 7 pro as well 😂
love this car
Display dark mode better! not light mode
can't be decided manually?
Black somehow looks better.
Agreed
