Lexus of Santa Fe

What Lexus of Santa Fe does

Lexus of Santa Fe is a single-rooftop, authorized Lexus franchise dealership located at 6824 Cerrillos Rd in Santa Fe, New Mexico, operating under the corporate ownership of Group 1 Automotive (NYSE: GPI), a large publicly traded international automotive retailer. The dealership sells new Lexus vehicles across the full model range — sedans (IS, ES), crossovers and SUVs (NX, RX, GX, LX, TX, UX), the RZ battery-electric SUV, hybrid and plug-in hybrid variants, and performance coupes (RC, RC F, LC, LC Convertible, IS 500) — alongside 379 pre-owned units and a L/Certified Pre-Owned program backed by a 202-point inspection and extended warranty.

The business operates a full dealer-services stack: factory-trained service technicians, genuine OEM parts, complimentary maintenance via the manufacturer-funded LexusCare program (first two scheduled services plus extended hybrid-battery warranty), financing and leasing through Lexus Financial Services, and ancillary partnerships including Sunbit for service financing. Customer-facing technology is conventional dealer tooling — a Dealer Inspire website with online credit applications, digital trade-in valuation via AcceleRide, BotDoc for secure document exchange, ComplyAuto for privacy compliance, and Mapbox-powered location services — supported by manufacturer-provided connected-car features (Lexus Interface, Remote Connect, Safety Connect, Service Connect).

The go-to-market is traditional luxury auto retail: physical showroom plus digital storefront, with promotional APR offers (1.99%/5.49% for 72 months), Lexus Cash incentives on selected EVs (e.g., $5,500 on the RZ), and a $388 dealer service fee. The customer base is entirely retail — affluent individual buyers, families purchasing three-row SUVs, and lease-return/trade-in customers — drawn from Santa Fe and surrounding communities including Los Alamos, Taos, and Espanola. Bilingual Spanish-speaking staff serve the regional Hispanic market. Revenue is generated through new vehicle sales, pre-owned sales (including non-Lexus brands), F&I product residuals, service labor, and parts, with no disclosed financial detail at the dealership level.
