What it really means when a car is American-made

Contrary to the average consumer's belief, American cars are not fully American-made. American vehicles can contain some or even a high amount of foreign parts. Similarly, non-American cars can be assembled in factories in the United States. It can all be more than a little confusing. A layered supply chain is partly to blame and the American University Kogod School of Business and Cars.com have created indexes that can help you find the most American-made vehicles.
