What Makes a Car American-Made?

Determining what qualifies as an American-made car involves several factors:

  • Location of Final Assembly: The car must be assembled in the United States.
  • Percentage of U.S. and Canadian Parts: A significant portion of the car's components should originate from the U.S. or Canada.
  • Country of Origin for Engines and Transmissions: These critical components should also be sourced from the U.S.
  • U.S. Manufacturing Employees: The automaker should have a substantial workforce based in the U.S.
