As part of the cooperation program with Allur Group, students of D. Serikbayev East Kazakhstan Technical University (EKTU) visited dealerships of leading automotive brands in Astana, including Kia, Chevrolet, Li Auto (Lixiang), and Geely.

The visit was organized at a high level and provided future specialists with a unique opportunity to explore the dealerships’ modern facilities and technical infrastructure, learn about current vehicle models, and observe the full cycle of automotive service ө from diagnostics to body repair.

The practical part of the visit was particularly valuable. Allur specialists provided detailed insights into the operation of engineering systems, modern diagnostic equipment, and the specifics of servicing electric and hybrid vehicles. The students were also introduced to career growth opportunities within the company and prospects for professional development. A highlight of the visit was a test drive of the Li Auto L9 (Lixiang L9), the brand’s flagship hybrid SUV. Students had the opportunity to experience its performance, smooth ride, intelligent driver-assistance systems, and the comfort of its premium interior firsthand. This allowed them not only to see but also to experience the technologies of the future that are already available on the Kazakhstan market today.

On behalf of the students, we would like to express our gratitude to the management of Allur Group for the warm welcome, openness, and willingness to share their practical experience. Such visits allow students to gain a realistic understanding of Kazakhstan’s automotive industry and better understand employers’ expectations. We look forward to further fruitful cooperation!
