Fabrique Nationale d’Armes de Guerre, or simply FN, was a Belgian company founded in 1889. Although it was primarily known for making weapons, it also produced automobiles and motorbikes for several decades. The company began manufacturing automobiles in 1899, and continued to do so until the late 1930s.
FN was Belgium’s longest-serving automobile manufacturer, with a history spanning almost 40 years. The first car produced by the Fabrique Nationale d’Armes de Guerre (FN) was the Spider in 1900, which had a two-cylinder engine and a chain drive. FN’s luxurious Typ 30-40 followed in 1905 and was a favourite of Belgian royalty and the Shah of Persia. In 1927, the FN 10CV was launched, followed by the technically advanced FN 11CV in 1930, which was available as a delivery van and as an eight-cylinder model.
