Lexus Australia has opened a second new luxury vehicle dealership in four weeks.
It will be located in Toowoomba and serve one of the fastest-growing areas of Queensland.
The dealership joins the newly opened Lexus of Macarthur in the burgeoning greater western region of Sydney last week.
The new dealership at 597 Ruthven Street Toowoomba, which was two years in the planning, has a multi-storey showroom complex.
Dealer principal Brett Motton says there are unique design aspects to the three-level dealership building, including a 1000 square metre basement display area, a podium level with customer parking and outside Lexus display area, and the level one Lexus showroom.
“The building has the special features of a car lift and a beautiful Tasmanian Blackwood stair case, as well as a lift for people with mobility limitations,” he notes.
As a major regional centre, Toowoomba has 120,000 people in the city area and 165,000 in the local council area.
“When you add the Darling Downs and Lockyer Valley, it brings the population we will serve to 300,000,” Motton says.
The expansion comes at a time when Lexus new car sales reached an all-time high in 2016, with more than 9000 vehicles delivered in Australia.
Lexus will this year launch the premium LC coupe and has the LS luxury sedan scheduled for release in 2018.
