These 114 Cars Are Built in the U.S. for 2018

Cars.com’s American-Made Index takes many factors into account to determine just how American a given car might be, but it starts with one fundamental requirement: Final assembly has to occur in the U.S. Counting hybrid versions as separate models, 114 nameplates made that initial cut — a group that forms the initial pool of AMI eligibility, though plenty of other factors determine eligibility beyond this.

Here they are, arranged by automaker for the 2018 model year.

Note, of course, that many of the cars above have moved into 2019 model-year production as of this writing. Several all-new 2019s built in the U.S. will join them, from the Cadillac XT4 and Honda Insight to the Subaru Ascent and Ford Ranger. Check back next year to see how those cars ranked in the American-Made Index versus the 2019 field.
