By 2027, Kazakhstan is set to
produce around 200,000 cars using the small-unit assembly method. Domestic
plants are expected to contribute up to 50 percent of production volumes. There
are plans to achieve 20 percent production volume in 2024, and to increase this
figure by 10 percent in subsequent years. Projects are underway to bolster the automotive
component base in small industrial zones in the cities of Kostanai and Almaty. Notably,
car seat production has already been set up in the country, alongside the launch
of a multi-brand plant project for Chinese car manufacturing. Further plans include
putting into operation enterprises for the production of plastic parts and multimedia
systems. From January 1, 2026, every car brand manufactured in Kazakhstan will
master welding and painting operations. Domestic production in the machine-building
industry increased by 25 percent in the first quarter of this year.
