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

The dealership, which will cover an area of approximately 4,000 square meters, 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 commemorated the foundation of the new Lexus Astana dealership. Key figures were present, including John Thomson, President of Toyota Motor Kazakhstan, Pascal Rouch, Vice President of Lexus Europe, and Nurlan Smagulov, founder of Astana Motors. 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 2088.
The new Lexus facility, designed according to the brand’s global standards while incorporating elements of traditional Kazakh architecture, will feature an expansive showroom and premium customer experience areas. Once construction is completed, the current dealership, which has been operational since 2012, will relocate to this modern space.
