What mobicore groupe automobile does

Mobicore Groupe Automobile is a Belgian premium automotive retail group operating 16 dealership sites across Belgium and Luxembourg with approximately 215 employees. The group was founded by Vincent Fonzé, who entered the sector in 1994 with Mercedes-Benz and consolidated the Volvo, Polestar, and Lynk & Co franchises under the Mobicore banner; the current Volvo-centric entity traces to 2007. Following the 2023 divestiture of its Mercedes operation (CentrEtoile), the group now concentrates on Volvo (eight concessions), Polestar (three Spaces), and the newly added Lynk & Co franchise, alongside a proprietary used-car label, bodywork operations under Mobicore La Carrosserie, and Bosch Car Service-certified aftersales.

The business operates as a multi-site, multi-brand automotive distributor generating revenue from new-vehicle sales, used-vehicle sales under the Mobicore Premium Used Cars label, financing and insurance product commissions, OEM-aligned service and parts, bodywork repair, and fleet management services. Its customer base spans individual retail buyers, self-employed professionals, and SME fleet accounts, with a designated Fleet Dealer National status supporting the B2B channel. Strategic activity in 2024 was dominated by the Sonama and Autopolis Scancar acquisitions, which doubled Volvo sales volume and extended the group into Luxembourg, while 2025 has seen the addition of Lynk & Co and new Polestar Spaces in Liège and Hasselt.
