What business does Flo run in Pixar’s Cars?

The story behind the answer

Flo runs Flo’s V8 Cafe in Pixar’s Cars.

Flo’s V8 Cafe is the main diner in Radiator Springs and a social meeting place for the town’s residents. Flo is a turquoise 1950s-style show car and the wife of Ramone, who operates Ramone’s House of Body Art nearby. The cafe’s name references V8 engines, a familiar part of American automotive culture and the Cars universe’s vehicle-centered wordplay.

The diner helps establish Radiator Springs as a community rather than merely a roadside location. Its slogan, “Home of the famous V8,” appears in the film’s visual design and promotional material. Flo is voiced by Jenifer Lewis. Other important local businesses include Luigi’s Casa Della Tires, Fillmore’s organic fuel station, and Sarge’s surplus store. These locations make the town feel like a complete commercial district built around travelers and car culture.
