You may already know about many of them like Jaguar, BMW, Volkswagen, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Honda, Hyundai and several others.
But here are some you may not know about.
We caution you, do some research to find out if the model you are considering is made in the USA.
You will not only save a lot of money down the road when you need parts and service, you will be helping your country.

  • Chrysler 330. The Chrysler 300 may be on its last legs, but it is still available for sale. The model is actually manufactured in Canada and shipped to the U.S., which originally caused a stir when Chrysler launched its “Imported from Detroit” campaign.
  • Chrysler Pacifica. Chrysler has a long history of manufacturing minivans at its Windsor Assembly Plant just across the river from Detroit, and the Pacifica continues this tradition. It's made in Canada.
  • Dodge Challenger. This American sports car competes with the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro, but is actually built in Canada, at the same plant as the Chrysler 300 in Brampton, Ont. 
  • Dodge Charger. Like the Chrysler 300 and Dodge Challenger, the Charger is manufactured in Canada at the Brampton Assembly Plant outside of Toronto. It’s a bit ironic that the Hellcat Charger is viewed as one of the most American cars currently for sale, and it’s actually assembled north of the border.
  • Jeep Renegade. Jeep’s compact crossover, the Renegade is built in Melfi, Italy. As a byproduct of the merger with Fiat, the Renegade shares its platform, and thus assembly plant, with the Fiat 500X. They have done a good job in making the Renegade and 500X look completely different from each other.
  • Ford Edge. Ford manufactures several of its models in Canada and the Edge crossover is one of them. Built at the company’s Canadian factory in Oakville, Ont., the Ford Edge will be making way for an electric vehicle at the plant in the near future.
  • Chevrolet Equinox. The Equinox is manufactured in, you guessed it, Canada. It is assembled at the CAMI plant in Ingersoll, Ontario, where it used to share a home with its corporate sibling, the GMC Terrain. But in 2017 the Equinox became the sole proprietor of the CAMI plant.
  • GMC Terrain. With the debut of the second generation GMC Terrain, it was moved out of Canada and south of the border. It is currently assembled at the San Luis Potosí Assembly plant in Mexico alongside export models of the Chevrolet Onix and Equinox.
  • Ram 1500. Not all Ram pickup trucks are built outside the U.S., but demand is so strong that the Ram 1500 Regular Cab is also built at the Saltillo Truck Assembly plant in Mexico. Many of the Ram 1500 Crew Cab models are also built there as well.
  • Chevrolet Silverado / GMC Sierra. Even though it’s of the best-selling vehicles in the U.S., not all Chevrolet Silverados are actually built in the U.S. Like Ram, General Motors uses several plants to assemble their pickup trucks with the popular Crew Cab models manufactured in Mexico. The Silverado and Sierra Regular and Double Cabs are, however, built in America.
