Proven rides in the Iriz and Persona with torsion beam in the rear suspension. Among competitors like Mazda 3 too equipped with torsion beam for it's rear suspension. So Proton has done it's homework yet again. Keep it up. The ride is endorsed by none other than YS Khong. Viewers of this clip can be reassured i believe.
Thank you for the nice scenic drive along the Penang Durian Run and for showing us the good handling of the Proton S70! Thoroughly enjoyed your nice video!!
I often use this road to go Balik Pulau. Nice winding road, fun to drive especially with low traffic, but very hard to overtake drivers who are not familiar with the road and drive like a snail.
what felt very lighten is when got to see mr ys khoong place his phone at phone compartment Proton S70 provided, never see mr ys khoong do this in other video. thank you Proton S70 for this good design 👍🏻
Hahaha- it was not planned as part of the script - I just placed it there becaise the phone was a bit bulky in my pocket and I needed the body flexibility on the mountainous ride.
Very nice uncle testing our Proton S70. Nice to know Durian Run beside Genting Run. not forgetting safety tips- it clear again lets go- that for dual carriageway
Wow! Didn’t expect this car to handle this well! Looks like the car is well planted and is stable on corners. Poor guy sitting next to you, he’s so tense the entire journey!
@@mojojojo4440 yeah, if you’re not familiar with the road, the driving can be a bit daunting. Especially deciding who to give way at those very narrow corners 🤣
YS is a 5 time champion. He is racing and rally champion. He is definitely good in his craft. He has been in the auto industry for abt 50 yrs. He is the most prominent auto reviewer. He has the most followers as well as the most read and viewed site. Obviously, he must have something substantial to offer, otherwise, he will not be able to appeal to so many for such a long time. In fact, his read, viewed, and followers site is growing by leaps and bounds. So, he must be doing something right. You decide for yourself whether he writes facts or fiction. All cars have good and bad points. Perhaps, Geely should oversee every aspect of the S70 to ensure everything works out well to satisfy customers. This is a bread-and-butter and daily-driver car for most drivers. YS is very popular and many are trying to get to his level. Some even try to say all sorts of things against him.
Uncle, just wondering how much does the car sticks to the ground with the suspension setup from Proton. Is it floaty like Perodua since its more family oriented?
You must be referring to tue stabilizer bar. Most cars already have one and it is tuned to what the designers want to achieve in terms of handling on one side and comfort on the other side. For most cars the suspension is set more to the comfort side and sometimes accessories makers make a thicker bar to reduce the roll. Of course this is at the expense of ride comfort. Everythimg is possible but not all products are good: therefore my answer can only be " it depends".
They are very similar in characteristics. Both are on a relatively new platform amd both run Macpherson strut/torsion beam. I think the Proton's 17 inch wheels may be a great advantage. Definitely the S70 has more power
Yes, it is a beautiful stretch, perfect for a tarmac stage. Could be our very own SS that can be internationally known if someone were to make it happen.
Remembering that the Persona and Preve platforms are more than 10 years old and that tje S70 platform is much newer in design, I must say the S70 handles very well, and potentially is better. It does not mean you cannot tune a Persona or a Preve to handle just as well. However it is important to note that there is a balance between ride comfort and handling - I know some cars that handle extremely well, but are horrible to sit in because your brains can become tou foo fa if you sit in them long enough.
pls watch Tai Choo Yee's S70 Part 1 and 2 for HONEST feedback on how it drives. with it's strength and weaknesses. Sorry uncle but every car you drive comment is superb with political correctness (each car got its good, that car is also nice, to each his preference etc), market nowadays is mature with informed buyers. People will want to compare with Honda City, Toyota Vios at this price range.
We each have our own styles and we do what we do best: the viewer chooses what or who he wants to watch; but some try to teach the youtuber what to do.
You ask uncle to watch, then what? Follow TCY comments/review and paste it into uncle review? For sure you are not a targeted person that uncle want to share/reach.. 😊
the best person to answer that question, is the potential buyer themselves. for me, the S70 steering feels quite light compared to the vios. less road feedback. almost same feeling as the city. vios wins in that category. but that's just me all 3 models are available for test drive. no reason not to test them before buying. i know a lot of vios owners who are hoping that reviewers will bash the S70 and praise the new vios. but if you really did have a test drive in all 3, you'll know the answer yourself. we can just call the new vios as a perodua vios aka myvi sedan, with a bit better handling. same lousy gearbox, underpowered engine. reviewers wont tell you that. "enough power" is what they keep on saying. for rm 95k, that car is a big disappointment. again, viewers should test drive themselves. just take reviews with a pinch of salt
TBH, we watch YS's video for his driving review of the car as he is actually driving it. As you've mentioned, "market nowadays is mature with informed buyers", but what they were "informed" might be bias as well. Since you've also brought up political correctness, i guess only those who are always doing things politically correct sees everything in that view. So bring your SJW attitude out of here. We are here to enjoy YS's driving
As a penangite, this road is a.ways with road usrs, cyclist, bikes etc. U cn have all ur genting runs, but pls dont endanger people here, n givimng bad example to the young. Will report to proton n authorities on better control on test drives on public roads.
Actually after watching the video, Uncle emphasised that this video is to check the handling and not for speeding. Furthermore, Uncle repeated many times in the video that to be careful and watch out for motor/bicycle and cars from opposite lane.
Thank you Mr Troh for pointing out exactly what we did amd said. We always take great care whenever we drive amd if that person who made the unfair comment above has just watched the video he would have noticed we actually slowed down for traffic.

Poor guy sitting next to you, he’s so tense the entire journey!
Stay healthy Uncle Khong. Always enjoy your review❤
Thank you for reviewing this route 🙏 this is my daily route and I’ve been wondering how will this car fare 😊
This route give anxiety at certain area 😅
Hope you enjoy it!
As usual, must be careful at all times , Sometimes if you get stuck behind a slow car - drive is ended because there is hardly any space to overtale.
@@mojojojo4440 yeah, if you’re not familiar with the road, the driving can be a bit daunting. Especially deciding who to give way at those very narrow corners 🤣
@@sysco90 i have to calm my wife while driving using this road 😂

Lain kali - I pun suka nasi kandar yamg sedap.

perh berderet uncle jumpe s70 sepanjang video ni 😁😁
Ys khong Proton ride and handling
Enjoy the scenic drive. It a superb route for durian run and nice corners drive, hehehe....
Uncle at the side macam gabrar saja 😊
Uncle, just wondering how much does the car sticks to the ground with the suspension setup from Proton. Is it floaty like Perodua since its more family oriented?
You can see from the video. We also did a Gemtimg climb, so please do watch that one too. The cars in the video are stock.
No. But, it’s steering feels bit floaty.
For daily drive (highway+city), which drive mode is better? Comfort or Sports for the handling, etc
Comfort is enough for daily drive
Hi uncle did this proton S70 handles better than new vios...???
They are very close in the handling department.
Your passenger doesnt seem happy.🤣🤣🤣
Sorry, we tried to get a click bait but couldnt get any.
Passenger BP slightly high to 180*😂
Padu 👍
honda city, toyota vios, proton s70. which one more better handling? appreciate ur response
All very close .
Hi uncle, I would like to hear some comments from you regarding the stable bar/racing bar. Will these stable bars improve car performance? Thanks
You must be referring to tue stabilizer bar. Most cars already have one and it is tuned to what the designers want to achieve in terms of handling on one side and comfort on the other side.

What's the rattling like sound each time you turn?
My bag loose in the cabin
Uncle khong s70 genting when
Already
Uncle YS, which one is better handling, S70 or the new Vios?
They are very similar in characteristics. Both are on a relatively new platform amd both run Macpherson strut/torsion beam.
I think the Proton's 17 inch wheels may be a great advantage. Definitely the S70 has more power
Vios more comfort. This one handles better.
Dah boleh lalu eh jalan balik pulau ni
Dah lama lah!
dok makan jalan la uncle, careful
Yin Swan mate.
The route will be perfect for a tarmac stage in rallying.
Imagine you going all out in the Toyota Celica ST185. 😊
Yes, it is a beautiful stretch, perfect for a tarmac stage. Could be our very own SS that can be internationally known if someone were to make it happen.
How does it compare to Proton Persona, and also Proton Preve to an extend?
Remembering that the Persona and Preve platforms are more than 10 years old and that tje S70 platform is much newer in design, I must say the S70 handles very well, and potentially is better.
It does not mean you cannot tune a Persona or a Preve to handle just as well.
However it is important to note that there is a balance between ride comfort and handling - I know some cars that handle extremely well, but are horrible to sit in because your brains can become tou foo fa if you sit in them long enough.
Insurance got buy 99 😂
Just drive sensibly

@@testrun5685 you have comprehension issue. My comments are for the general audience.
the best person to answer that question, is the potential buyer themselves.
for me, the S70 steering feels quite light compared to the vios. less road feedback. almost same feeling as the city. vios wins in that category. but that's just me
all 3 models are available for test drive. no reason not to test them before buying.
i know a lot of vios owners who are hoping that reviewers will bash the S70 and praise the new vios. but if you really did have a test drive in all 3, you'll know the answer yourself.
we can just call the new vios as a perodua vios aka myvi sedan, with a bit better handling. same lousy gearbox, underpowered engine.
