Audi's plant in Brussels, Belgium, will cease production next year after the automaker's attempts to find a buyer failed. The plant, which employs slightly more than 3,000 workers, was acquired by Audi from Volkswagen in 2007 and currently builds the Q8 E-Tron and the related Q8 Sportback E-Tron.

Audi has confirmed that it will close the Brussels, Belgium, factory that builds the Q8 e-tron on February 28, which means the company's first mass-market EV will also end production after a short 2025 model year.
