Group 1 Automotive Continues Nationwide Brand Alignment with Lexus Clear Lake in the Clear Lake area

Former Sterling McCall Lexus of Clear Lake location is among the dealerships now operating under the unified Group 1 brand

HOUSTON, Jun 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- As part of its ongoing nationwide initiative to unify its extensive network of dealerships, Group 1 Automotive, Inc., a Houston-based automotive retailer with dealerships across the U.S. and U.K., today highlighted Lexus Clear Lake, formerly Sterling McCall Lexus of Clear Lake, which has operated under its new name since September 2, 2025.

The Clear Lake-area dealership is one of a growing number of U.S. locations aligned under the initiative, giving customers a clearer connection to Group 1's scale, resources, and operational standards while preserving the local team, Lexus expertise, and customer relationships that have served the Clear Lake and Bay Area communities for more than two decades.

Backed by the scale, resources, and expertise of an international automotive retailer, Group 1 Automotive remains focused on delivering the personalized service and community connections that define the local dealership experience. Learn more at Group1Auto.com.

Better Customer Experience

The transition from Sterling McCall Lexus of Clear Lake to Lexus Clear Lake is part of a broader effort to create a more consistent customer experience across Group 1's U.S. retail network. In keeping with Lexus's dealer naming standards, the dealership operates under the Lexus name while remaining wholly part of the Group 1 network. The rebrand did not represent a change in ownership, staffing, product offerings, or day-to-day operations.

Group 1 Automotive has owned and operated the Clear Lake-area dealership for more than two decades. The new name formally connects the location to Group 1's national platform, giving local customers the benefit of a familiar Clear Lake-area dealership supported by the resources, technology, and operational discipline of a larger automotive group.

"Since taking our new name, our customers have found the same local team they know and trust, now with a clearer connection to the strength and resources of Group 1," said Lyza Postell, General Manager of Lexus Clear Lake. "The name on the building changed, but what matters here has not: a consistent, convenient, and transparent experience, whether someone is shopping for a new Lexus, servicing their current vehicle, or considering a trade-in."

Continuity of Service and Local Commitment

Lexus Clear Lake continues to serve customers from its existing location at 18160 Gulf Freeway in Friendswood, Texas, supporting drivers throughout Friendswood, Webster, League City, Clear Lake, and surrounding Bay Area communities with new Lexus vehicles, pre-owned vehicles, Lexus service, parts, and maintenance support.
