Belgium no longer has its own car industry but several foreign makers have plants there in order to take advantage of the moules frites, chocolate, waffles and exotic beers.

Audi make these in Brussels and in the past their factory assembled Studebakers

Volvo make the V40, S60 and XC60 in Ghent. Neither the Flemings nor the Walloons actually call it Ghent.
