Astana - Post Report Question and Answers
What kind of vehicle(s) including electric ones do you recommend bringing to post, given the terrain, infrastructure, availability of parts, burglary/carjacking risks, etc.? What kind of car or vehicles do you advise not to bring?
Don't recommend electric due to the cold winter temperatures. Vehicles with high clearance and 4WD are recommended due to the snow and cold. We had a FWD initially that got stuck in the first snow of the winter season, but the city does a very good job of clearing the snow and ice on the roads. People had a wide range of vehicles but Japanese vehicles seem to do well. I would Google to see what dealerships are around. - Mar 2025
