Five million Volvo cars built in Ghent

Volvo Car Group's plant in Ghent, Belgium, has now built five million cars since it started operating in 1965. "This is a milestone for the entire Volvo Car Group. Five million cars is a landmark achievement," says Lars Wrebo, Senior Vice President Manufacturing at Volvo Car Group.
 The fifth millionth car was a Volvo V40 D2 that rolled off the assembly line in Ghent at the end of 2012. The almost 5,000 plant employees got to sign their names on the car, and today it is on display at the Brussels Motor Show.
