Born in Moscow, Lukashevich competed in karting from 2001 to 2005. In 2001 and 2002 he took the Mini Class title of the Moscow Karting Championship. He also won the Russian Karting Cup in 2002.

Lukashevich's next step was Formula Palmer Audi. He finished fifteenth in the championship, amassing 123 points. A second season followed in 2008, and was more successful for the Russian driver. Despite only taking part in half of the season's twenty races due to budget constraints, he secured a top ten championship finish.
Lukashevich missed the entire 2009 season due to sponsorship problems.
