What Top Motors does

Top Motors is a privately held, multi-brand automotive dealership group headquartered in Wevelgem, Belgium, founded in 1989 as a Volkswagen-Audi concession. It operates seven physical locations across West and East Flanders (Roeselare, Wevelgem, Kortrijk, Waregem, Kruisem, Oudenaarde, and Tielt) and is an authorized dealer for six Volkswagen Group brands: Volkswagen, Audi, SEAT, CUPRA, Škoda, and Volkswagen Bedrijfsvoertuigen. The group runs 10 certified workshops and a body shop subsidiary (Top Repair/Wondercar) that serves all brands, including paintless dent removal, windscreen repair, and alloy wheel refurbishment.

The business generates revenue across seven streams: new vehicle sales, certified used vehicle sales (under MyWay and Audi Approved:plus labels with 111-point inspections and Carpass warranty), maintenance and repair services at the 10 workshops, bodywork and smart repair, fleet business services (car policy, TCO, charging infrastructure, split billing) delivered by a dedicated 7-person Fleet Business Unit, financing and insurance intermediation, and sale of original parts and accessories. Distribution runs through direct on-site sales staff at each dealership, a proprietary online stock platform (stock.topmotors.be), and a dedicated commercial Van Center at Wevelgem. Customer segments are individual consumers (primary) and corporate/fleet customers; the group is privately held with no external investors identified, organized as multiple Belgian corporate entities (Top Motors Wevelgem nv as parent, plus regional subsidiaries) under a flat management structure.
