Genesis’ GV80 concept SUV showcase at Doha Festival City
Skyline Automotive, a Jaidah Group company and official distribution partner of Hyundai Motor Company and its luxury brand Genesis for Qatar, has announced that it is bringing the Genesis GV80 concept SUV to Doha Festival City throughout the month of November.
The Genesis GV80 concept SUV is the only “one of its kind” in the Middle East and Africa, Skyline Automotive has said in a press statement.
The GV80 concept, with its futuristic design and innovative technology, was one of the highlights of this year’s Qatar Motor Show (QMS) 2018. The unveiling of the car on the first day of QMS marked its first public appearance in the Middle East and Africa.
“As a result of the massive popularity the concept SUV received from the motor show, Genesis has decided to expand the presence of the GV80 in Qatar for one more month,” the statement noted.
The Genesis booth at Qatar Motor Show, set up by Skyline Automotive, attracted thousands of visitors, including key stakeholders in Qatar and major local, regional and Asian media outlets. More than 50 test drives were also organised for Genesis’ other cars on display at the motor show.
These included the G70, G90, G80 and G80 Sport. The arrival of Genesis’ latest sedan brought to life the vision of the Genesis brand to create products which combine elegance, practicality and fierceness, meeting the needs of a motorist looking for a unique experience on the road.
“Skyline Automotive has made a strong name for itself after first entering the market in 2017. Since then, it has continued to bring various investments and product firsts to Qatar,” the statement added.
Mohamed Jaidah, Group executive director of Jaidah Group, said: “Jaidah Group has been an active participant in Qatar Motor Show for years, first with Jaidah Automotive, and more recently with Skyline Automotive, the official distributor of our luxury brand, Genesis. From what we’ve seen during our participation, Qatar Motor Show has been marvellous year after year, and we’re very proud to have been a part of it.”
Johan Madarasz, marketing manager of Skyline Automotive, added: “We’ve been very pleased with the attendance rate to our booth at Qatar Motor Show. People’s interest in the car has encouraged us to extend the lease of the GV80 in Doha for another month so we can display the car at Doha Festival City, to give more people a chance to see it, in case they haven’t been able to at the motor show.”
