The 7th edition of the Qatar Motor Show, has revealed that an exclusive Super Car sponsored by Commercial Bank will be unveiled at this year’s show. Held under the patronage of H.E. Sheikh Abdullah bin Nasser bin Khalifa Al Thani, Prime Minister and Minister of Interior of the State of Qatar, the highly-anticipated event will open its doors from April 18th to the 22nd at the Doha Exhibition and Convention Center (DECC).

The Super Car, a brand new Lotus Evora 410, will be displayed in the region for the first time since its European reveal last month. The news is a testament to Qatar Motor Show’s leading position as a platform for the most exclusive, highly-anticipated regional reveals. The Super Car complements this year’s theme, “Driving to Innovation”, and showcases impressive features including a max speed of 285 km/h, a max power of 410 hp at 7000 rpm and a kerb weight of 1,336 kg. The car’s front and rear have a fully independent suspension, forged aluminium double wishbone suspension, anti-roll bar, Eibach springs and Bilstein dampers. It offers a Lotus tuned hydraulically assisted steering and driver selectable ESP modes - Drive/Sport/Race.

“Organising events such as the Qatar Motor Show in partnership with the private sector forms part of our strategy to cultivate home-grown tourism products that attract regional and international visitors,” commented Ahmed AlObaidli, Director of Exhibitions Department at Qatar Tourism Authority. “We recognise that tourism events, products and services can only be effective if they are built on partnerships with members of the private sector, and we are grateful to Commercial Bank for returning, year after year, to support Qatar Motor Show and help make it a resounding success.”

Commercial bank has been part of the Qatar Motor Show since 2011. Last year the bank launched a Vehicle Loan campaign in conjunction with the show and offered competitive offers supported by a highly experienced Vehicle Finance team which provided expert advice and instant approvals on loans for customer convenience.

Commenting on the sponsorship, Commercial Bank CEO, Mr. Joseph Abraham stated, “Commercial Bank is proud to be the Super Car Sponsor of the Qatar Motor Show 2017. The Bank has a long association with this exceptional Qatari event that showcases dozens of new car models every year, and we are again delighted to participate at the Qatar Motor Show and welcome thousands of local and expatriate fans to enjoy pure motoring indulgence.”

Qatar Motor Show 2017 promises to be a truly experiential event, bringing to car lovers the most fascinating and innovative creations of the automotive industry.
