Astana Motors to build innovative Lexus car dealership, designed by Chapman Taylor

Astana Motors has partnered with Chapman Taylor to develop a new state-of-the-art Lexus dealership in Astana, Kazakhstan.

Lexus Astana Showroom

The dealership, which will cover an area of approximately 4,000m2, will be located in the Nura district of the capital and is set to become one of Europe’s premier Lexus facilities.

On September 3, a ceremonial groundbreaking event celebrated the start of construction at the new Lexus Astana dealership. Key figures were present, including Nurlan Smagulov, founder of Astana Motors, Pascal Ruch, Vice President of Lexus Europe, and John Thomson, President of Toyota Motor Kazakhstan. Together, they laid a symbolic "time capsule" in the foundation, which contains a message for future generations to be opened on the 100th anniversary of the Lexus brand in 2089.

Director Chris Lanksbury presented the showroom design concept at the launch event

The new Lexus facility, designed according to the brand’s global standards while incorporating traditional Kazakh and Japanese cultural elements, will feature expansive showroom and premium customer experience areas.
