Genesis and AlRayyan Hotel Doha partner to bring human-centered luxury to car enthusiasts in Qatar


The Genesis auto brand, represented in Qatar by official distribution partner Skyline Automotive, hosted a successful showcase at the Mall of Qatar giving attendees a chance to experience personalized luxury on a grand scale. The Genesis G80 Sport and G90 were displayed in the Mall of Qatar as part of Skyline Automotive’s effort to bring elegance and high-end luxury to motor enthusiasts in the country.

The showcase was organized in partnership with the five-star AlRayyan Hotel Doha, the first Curio Collection by Hilton hotel in the Middle East, which added a touch of hospitality and comfort to the experience. VIP guests had the chance to request a test drive of the G80 Sport and the G90, tour the hotel and have a taste of an exclusive Genesis Mocktail offered in the hotel’s high-end café.

Johan Madarasz, Skyline Automotive Marketing Manager, said: “We were delighted to offer visitors and VIP guests to the Mall of Qatar the chance to interact with the Genesis cars and sample true luxury and comfort. Having the chance to partner with AlRayyan Hotel Doha was also in honor as we share a similar philosophy in offering human-centered luxury, which helped enhance the experience of visitors to our showcase. Following the success of the activation, we will soon launch a special Genesis campaign aligned with the celebration of the upcoming Qatar National Day 2017.

”Skyline Automotive specialists were on hand to answer any questions visitors had about Genesis models available at Skyline Automotive and schedule test drives to allow for an in-depth look at what each model can offer on the road.

Skyline Automotive is home to a team of fully trained and certified Genesis technicians who will cater to clients’ every need with the support of a fully-stocked warehouse carrying all Genesis parts available at a moment’s notice.

Highlighting the confidence Skyline Automotive has in the quality of the Genesis brand, the business offers a five-year unlimited mileage manufacturer warranty. The package includes home-to-home service, access to a global concierge network and a five year or 100,000-kilometer free maintenance service, whichever comes first.

“Genesis models make a striking first impression with their beautiful design but it was exhilarating to have the opportunity to take the car out on the road. I was pleasantly surprised with the smooth and comfortable feeling of manouvering the car, feeling the road fall away and enjoying the luxurious interior,” said Mall of Qatar visitor Samer.

The Genesis G80 Sport has been recognized as a finalist in the 2017 International Design Excellence Awards (IDEA®), organized by the Industrial Designers Society of America. The organization praised the G80 Sport for its elegant, powerful lines and athletic appearance. Underneath its attractive exterior, the G80 Sport’s 3.3-liter direct-injected, twin-turbocharged V6 engine boasts 365 horsepower and is paired with a sport-tuned eight-speed automatic transmission. Supported by an upgraded suspension system, this robust new powertrain delivers superior driving dynamics, improved ride compliance and sport agility.

Whereas, the Genesis G90 was named top luxury car in 2017 at the Auto Pacific Ideal Vehicle Awards. The vehicle combines luxury and comfort through dignified elegance, incorporating technology that promotes comfort and safety and interiors that enable genuine relaxation. Car enthusiasts interested in learning more about the luxury Genesis brand or scheduling a test drive can visit the newly open flagship Skyline Automotive showroom inside Doha’s automotive hub on Salway Road, which is accessible from Decoration Intersection near the HSBC Bank’s Salwa Road branch.
