Made for the guest

Guest features are design proposals. Final packaging, performance, licensing and cultural review are part of development.

Comfort for the journey. Consideration for what it means. The guest programme brings practical care to the small moments around an arrival.

Care with a purpose

Nothing sacred is printed on the vehicle.

The guest chooses

Every feature can be switched off, and nothing plays or sounds unless the guest asks.

Carefully reviewed

Every proposed feature on this page must be reviewed by the fleet's cultural and religious adviser before it ships, and by the operator for each commission.

The direction

The proposed Qibla aid would appear on the rear screen as a simple arrow, calculated from the vehicle's position, and in the driver's display. In the lid of the rear console sits a brass compass rose, engraved with the name of the city of service and the bearing to Makkah from its centre, with a small emerald marker at that bearing. In Makkah itself the bearing changes with every street, so the screen is the instrument and the rose is the reminder.

The recitation

A library of Qur'an recitations by named reciters, licensed for the fleet, chosen from the rear armrest by surah and reciter. The cabin's audio is tuned with a preset for the human voice, the volume is set from the rear seat, and playback pauses when a door opens. There is no screen animation and no text on the display beyond the surah name. A guest who does not choose it never hears it.

The times

Prayer times for the city of service, from the Umm al-Qura calendar, shown beside the clock. At each time, if the guest has asked for it, a single soft chime — never a loudspeaker, never outside the vehicle. In Ramadan, the time to iftar.

The mat

A rolled prayer mat in a tube of sand leather, in its own compartment under the rear seat on the guest models, cleaned and replaced by the fleet between guests. Beside it, a hook for a tasbih and a tray for a phone.

A considered welcome

The proposed cooled console brings bottled water and a covered tray for dates within reach. Its location, capacity and cooling performance remain part of the development programme. The proposed welcome can include bottled water, covered dates and a cooled towel, prepared by the operator before boarding.

Ihram

Pale cabins for pale garments: lint-free leather and wool, a hook and a folding shelf on the rear pillar for a garment or a bag, and a floor that does not mark white cloth. The Sand's fabric is chosen for the same reason.

Modesty and quiet

Privacy glass to the rear on the guest models, laminated on the Emerald. A partition is a possible commission, subject to packaging, ventilation and safety assessment. The cabin lighting is warm and low; nothing flashes.

Access with dignity

A low sill and a high hip point, so a guest sits down rather than climbs down. Brass grab handles at every door. A potential Access variant on the five-door body needs a dedicated feasibility study for ramp access, headroom, restraints and approval.

Language

Arabic first, everywhere the guest looks, with English beside it. Hijri and Gregorian dates. A driver card in the door pocket with the fleet's greeting in both.

The pattern

The QAF pattern — an eight-pointed star lattice — is perforated into the seat centres, embossed into the door cards, cut into the brass speaker grilles and woven into the floor mats. It is geometry, not scripture, and it is described in full under Bespoke → The pattern.

Nothing on this page is printed on the outside of a QAF. Each detail belongs to the guest experience.

Plan your fleet.

Every guest feature is agreed with the operator, and reviewed, before it ships.
