Genesis test drives

Test drives from home last for an hour.
From Genesis Studios the test drive lasts an hour but allow two hours for your appointment.
Event test drives are 30 minutes but allow 45 minutes in total.

Whilst you will be covered by our insurance on the test drive, there are criteria you have to meet to take a test drive.
- You need to have held a valid UK licence for at least two years
- You need to be aged between 25-74 (drivers over 75 can be accommodated on request)
- You must have no more than six points on your licence
We will require you to complete a driver’s licence check prior to confirming your booking.

More info

At events and from the Genesis Studios you can choose the date, time and model you wish to test drive, which will be confirmed at the time of booking.
For test drives from your home, you can request a preferred date, time and model. We will then be in touch to confirm that your chosen date is possible, or suggest the nearest alternative dates if not.

Either a Genesis Driving Consultant or a Genesis Personal Assistant will bring the Genesis to you.

Yes, your test drive from home doesn't have to be from home, it might be from home, work or somewhere else convenient. You can also choose the route, to test your Genesis on roads that you are familiar with.
Genesis Studio test drives and test drive from events usually have a pre-defined route that we have carefully selected in advance. However, if you do have any special requests, we will do our best to accommodate these on the day.

Please arrive at your confirmed appointment time. This will leave enough time before the test drive to show you around the model and its features and to answer any questions you may have.

Test drives from home are accompanied.
Most (but not all) Genesis Studio test drives are accompanied.
At events, it's up to you whether you think that it would be helpful to have a Genesis Driving Consultant with you to explain the controls and features.
