Honda Civic RS 2022 FE / The Ultimate Test / Genting Hill Climb / 182 PS, 240 Nm / YS Khong Driving

- Finally, the long wait is over - we managed to get a Honda Civic RS to do the ultimate test - on our favorite hill climb road, Genting Highlands.
A longer wheelbase, a wide stance, 18-inch wheels, Michelin PS4 treads, a SPORT mode, and Sports type paddle shifters - will this combination work well?
This time, of course we climbed all the way to the top, and the video is unedited from the bottom to the top, so you can see first hand everything that happened during this adventure.
The suspension is stock, Macpherson struts in the front and a multi-link arrangement at the rear - it worked very well, and the extended 2735mm wheelbase seems to have a positive effect on the handling.
What is important is that the overall package works well, and the result is a car that is relatively easy to handle.
Please do watch this video, and let us have your comments below.
Also, if you want to book this vehicle, you can do so at shop.yskhongdriving or you can send a whatsapp to 016 3350609.
Finally we at YS Khong Driving would like to extend our thanks to our friendly Honda Damansara 3S dealer, MH Prestige Auto Sdn Bhd for entrusting us with the Honda Civic RS.

Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Appreciated the driving tips as well. Thank you for making these videos. The new civic is a great car and handles well.
Thank you for your support.
My heart rate jumps a few BPM up whenever u said "here we go!" 🏎
Impressed the car power and handling!
Been waiting for this video ever since the launch of the new Civic so excited to watch!
Thank you for being so patient. We couldnt get a car.
im so impressed with ur driving skills.. so so good. insane!
Finally was waiting for this uncle, bravo! 👍👍👍
This run was my deciding factor to buy this car. Sporty and fun, but very practical for daily use. Greetings from PH, big fan of the channel!
Thanks for your support. Your kind words mean a lot to me. 🤩
Nice review and definitely superb driving uncle ! I love it
Excellent driving from a racing legend. Enjoying the video. Thank you Sir!
finally the FE gets the much awaited test by Uncle!
I have booked V specs Red Civic last monday and will be getting it this Monday. Thank you Uncle Sir for this review, it has answered all my questions.. 160++ kmh on the straight line before reaching Gohtong roundabout was really fast uncle.
v spec cepat tuan dapat...sye book rs bln 9 baru dapat😅
@@sadik-js9hy rezeki masa tu ada stok lagi .. sekarang mmg susah dpt stok sbb HM reschedule bulan ini punya delivery
Finally!!! The most awaited video. Thank you uncle 😊
Hopefully Uncle keeping up good health to feed us more of his video. Stay safe Uncle.
some people say why drive so fast, but Uncle YS says why not. keep it up, but drive safe too.
Finally here uncle! Me Myself owns a 11th gen civic and love it more and more everyday .It’s been very friendly to a starter like me.It’s also my first car,gonna be a good start
Wah uncle! You're a legend!!! Thoroughly enjoyed!
Very nice driving, uncle. You have answered all of my questions about FE. Am considering this for a family car, another one is Corolla Cross.
As usual the only review I've been waiting for. I think I have a better understanding of this current FE generation. Thanks Uncle YS Khong. Always a delight to watch your reviews
Thank you so much! You made my day!
Not much excitement from uncle's face. The CVT whirring sound is terrible. Gives this engine ZF or dual-clutch will fly!!!
Ordered the RS since 15 Jan, my SA told me it’s arriving the end of the month, can’t wait for the arrival.
Uncle Khong living the life, at least for me la uncle. You get to test drive new cars while also making side hustle by promoting it. Keep up the good work uncle khong🤘
Nothing better than seeing uncle happily exiting corners
Thanks for making this video..
I love this car very well.
❤🚗
Very good driving uncle 👍🏻 thumbs up
Great video...fantastic run....thank you Sir
Wow , finally
Superb driving 👍
"Really really good handling man this car first class" - 18:05, darn right!
Handling is so good around corners, I have an RS and actually only overtake at corners and enjoy it so much...
Great as always!!! Enjoyed it very much, keep it up and stay safe uncle
Good, safe, driving. Much better than our other CZcamsrs
Thank you.
Thanks uncle for this video. After watching it a few months ago, then I finally decided to get the RS version.
Good decision, but if you had taken the plunge earlier, you may have gotten your car by now. Still, it's never too late.
you are my idol sir. i believe doing what we love doesn't age.
Uncle.. uncle... enjoy lenjan this civic rs... superb driving uncle... 👍👍👍👍👍
dont forget the PS4 contributes a lot to give that neutral non understeer handling, with that tyre even last gen altis handles quite well. also while people complain about that cvt, it actually delivers if you asked for it with minimum drama and i believe is the right transmission choice for all who dont race and/or heavy tune their car
Wow! Can the tyres itself produce such a broad difference in handling?
Haha install ps4 on your myvi and see
@@ML-yq5hj where got PS4 such size for Myvi laa..
@@azizwahid8443 hahaha he really thing 1set tyre chabge so much?
Not really dramatic, until PS4 + rigid collar.
If you need more, add eibach lowering spring and or ultra racing brace.
omg...your warm coffee didn't spill out after up hill driving...salute uncle...
Good cup holder.
Most awaited Uncle....❤️
Pre-ordered the Red RS since at least last year November.. until now havent get yet 😭😭 really cant wait for it..
Haven't bought the car yet,but i saw some ads and fall in love with her. Uncle ys back it up to make me want to own it
So considerate driver... That's a real experience driver... Always think about others
Great driving skill sirr..
Great one, uncle! ❤️👍🏼
one of my favorite channel...
Excellent review Uncle YS👍🏾👍🏾
Thank you.
Just bought this car a month ago and all I can say is the handling of this car is top notch!!I have driven a lot of cars already but the civic is just on another level. Suspension and comfort is great! Power is more than enough.
Agreed.
@@YSKhongDriving 还根本 ，😅🎉😊
Do u get problem with ur steering rack?
21:35 what a view!!
Hello sir, Again I enjoyed your hill climb very much!! I’m Singaporean a nice flashback 30 years ago drove my old 200E ha!!ha!!ha!!ha!!ha!!ha!! But your driving was fantastic applause 👏 waiting for your next hill climb honestly it was a little fast for me today or maybe today I’m 67 YO ha!!ha!!ha!!ha!!ha!!ha!! but it was fun I felt like I’m your co driver in your car!! Again thanks for Sharing sir!!
My pleasure.
Nice car reviews 👍🏼👍🏼
Nice video uncle, much fun watching u drive as always 😆😆😁😁
not sure why this vid show up on recommendation, nice one
Thank you for the wonderful video, Uncle Khong. Your review affirm that this is a solid upgrade from Honda Civic FC to FE.
Yes, definitely.
walaupun laju uncle tetap cermat..sebab sepanjang video..saye tak dengar pun bunyi kenderaan lain honk..hehehe...😅👌👌
YS, after your review, sales will go up ! haha
Awesome, keep it up brother
mantap uncle..i like it...considering this civic for daily work commute as well..but maybe next year..
The best uncle ys 👍
When I saw the car doing what he did there in 14:08, I became so kan cheong for a second. Fortunately, u r super alert, uncle!
You must be 100 percent on the ball.Note the earlier bikes and other vehicles, but I am sure you could hear me stand on the brakes.
nice review. haters gonna hate, uncle gonna drive.
Thank you for your support.
İnsane driving uncle, love your review as well. Top 🫡
Thank you 🙌
Wow memang mantap bah kereta Honda Civic FE ni 👍🏻
As usual nice video , superb driving. where is the whinning sound come from ? very fade sound , I like it
Cvt
Wow, sounds really good! Reminds me of how an RCZ sounds like!
Hahaha. And this is a standard exhaust.
Terbaik uncle!!
Wahh dont play² with this old fella, he really knows how to race, salute.
Thank you for the video uncle YS. Any recomendations on where to learn to drive (like knowing the lines etc).
You can always learn from any of the Khong brothers or when we start our driving lessons.
I think the E variant does come with the Sport mode. It's on the Gear stick (R,P,N,D,S) instead on the driving mode selector. The V & RS only have R,P,N & D without the S (sport) on the gear stick.
The Sport, Normal, and Eco are on the console behind the gear stick. Not on the gear stick. See my intro, it shows that part for a bit.
I ❤️ the cvt whine!!
Awesome drive. Did u use the pedal shifters frequently during this drive sir?
All the way
Still waiting for my white RS, sad. Hopefully can get it by this month. Btw, love your driving skills uncle, aggresive yet full of alertness. Do you still able to drive like this at night? Superb eyesight!
Yes, I can.
14:08 . The brakes work! Seems a well balanced car, given hard braking while turning at speed. Can’t stand d cvt whine tho.
The cvt sound is not apparent when driving normally, and even on the mountain, but the mic seems to pick it up. The human ear is not as sensitive.
Honda brakes mmg very good. Tested Civic FC and Accord last year. Accord when I applied some brake, it's quite grabby like Mercedes. Hard brake mmg makan. Honda definitely has its flaws but in terms of braking performance, I feel it's excellent.
Of course it's good , it cost you RM750++ per pair . It even more expensive than sti or jaguar or Clio RS brakes 😂
Wow, the front looks Damm nice uncle ys, but the rear is opposite of it.. Hope Honda will repair it. Love you Uncle ys, please give me heart
😍
Dah cuba pandu. Memang best
Bagus!
who else agrees that the new civic reminds you of the 2014 robocop helmet design. but she does handle the corners like butter. as usual Uncle Khong splendid show
because of this pakcik i already booked 1 rs
finally i get real review......thank you uncle....
My pleasure
Looks fun especially when hearing the screeching tires..Considering this car for upgrade.. been using manual cars for too long…so Is it supposed to up shifts itself when in sports mode?
Yes it does, to prevent over revving
we can see how well the Honda powered on F1 Red bull racing, their powertrain & handling are superb
Nice video Uncle! Really enjoyed the driving footage. Here comes the cliche comparison again for this segment. Mazda 3 sedan or this Civic FE?
Each of the two have their merits.I suppose it really comes down to 6AT or CVT.
@@YSKhongDriving I see. Then need to really experience it ourself 😂
@@YSKhongDriving uncle, if price isn't an issue, which would you pick?
Mazda 3 2.0 or Honda Civic 1.5 Turbo?
Great uncle
Love the cornering stability! I wonder the Continental 17" tyre on the V Spec can handle as well as this 18" of RS for such test drive? I have booked a red V as well! Expecting to get it delivered in mid April, Puchong!
If you don't drive to the limit, you probably wouldn't know the difference. If you can, then change to 18 inch, and fit Michelin PS4, kautim.
@@YSKhongDriving Ya. Probably I would never ever drove to that kind of limit lol.. 😅. How to handle! 😅 I'm just a normal driver. Guess the 17" on the V is good enough for me even on the wet road as well. Thank! 😊
@@sengweiti6489 You can still fit the Michelin PS4 tyre on it with your 17". If i'm not mistaken, the OEM they gave would be the Continental MC5, which (for me personally) wouldn't prefer too much. :P Hope you enjoy your new car bro!
@@ykchoi99 However, what I heard is that the V spec has dedicated tuning for its stock 17". So, if one puts on a 18" on the V spec. It will not be that good in term handling! Is that true?
@Seng Wei Ti supposingly from what I know is they fine tuned your EPS according to the 17" size. So if retrofit a 18" to it you might not get the optimal ride and handling as for tuned for the 18". However, you may still replace your original 17" tyre with the PS4. The size for your 17" would be 215/50R17 (if I'm not mistaken). So you may just replace PS4 with the same size just like I did. ;) Hope it clarifies for you. ^^
I tot only youngster will happy sitting in Civic but looks like Uncle is also happy with that!! 🤣✌
Some people said this is now uncle car ma!
Terbaik Uncle
go up the genting hill with new golf r-line ，golf gti and golf r next please . thank you uncle khong present the test drive video .
Hahaha, we will try. Please stay tuned.
this man is a race trace driver🤣😅 nice drive. smoooooth
Imagine when a 320hp type R is gonna coming soon
Yep I just can imagine
Your driving skill is so good. Dont play play 😂
SUPERBBBBBBB !!!
handling 1st class.
uncle you make me want to buy this car desperately!!!
Hahaha. Yes it is pretty good.
Uncle, how is the comparison of this generation Civic with Mazda 3? which is better?
Superb driving..
Request for new hrv-v spec review.. thanks 😎
Stay tuned.
Hi Uncle, did you find the paddle shifter useful? Looks like you let the gearbox do its thing this time.
I used the paddles.
@@YSKhongDriving do u find it a bit disrupting when it shift up by itself despite “manual” mode.?
not use paddle shift even my car equipped. now gearbox smarter I believe.
Uncle do a review on mazda 3 mps.Heard it's a wild horse and wanna see how you tame it :p
The most awaited review.Just ordered V spec.Compared to all 3 variants I feel V spec is the best value,it is the only one with full leather.I dont like the half leather on the RS seen a few catches dirt easy.If money no issue of cause can go for RS.For me V best value.
agree
Feel the same but V spec also Should’ve given black roof liner. And most saddest part is In Malaysia even the highest RS Spec doesn’t come full digital meter.. let’s see in face lift models in coming years.
Smart choice mate
Congratulations. Remap it and u can get more Hp coming out from this beast.
Uncle maybe is time to upgrade your cam😆 , anyway nice video💪
It's the seat moving, not the cam.
You know how the handling when seeing Michelin Pilot Sport Tyre.
Finally !!!!!!
The E spec does have sport mode, it has the S gear just don’t have the button for it.
Terbaik...
Honda the best!
But got quality issues such as wind noises, alignment, rubber lining and others.
@@juck2263 dont need to be jealous la, boy
@Charles de Gaulle It is not about jealousy. To be honest, heard that civic fe owners have faced quality issues. As a Honda onwer, I agreed with honda owners who faced quality issues but problems cannot end, just like my HRV 2019 onwer
love it
FC is better than FE. FE front looks like Hyundai, rear tailights like Vios and interior also not nice, to be honest
Saw this car in the showroom during servicing my brv last month, damn this car looks good man, the exterior, and the interior fuh, mantul, and the new white colour rs also beautiful, if u guys dont like the red colour just pick the white colour,
FC looks better than FE. FE front like Audi, Rear tailights like Hyundai and interior also not nice, to be honest.
@@juck2263 dont need to be jealous la.
@Charles de Gaulle It is not jealousy. Even many reviewers still prefer Civic FC than Civic FE
@@juck2263 But driving experience, ride and handling matter more so FE wins hands down thanks to stiffer and more beefy chassis
@@juck2263 many reviewers?...who?
HONDA FOR LIFE 🤟🇯🇵😎
