Automakers that build cars, SUVs and pickups in American plants, with the models each plant builds and which models are imported.
This page may contain affiliate links. Full disclosures
These automakers build cars, SUVs, minivans and pickups in American assembly plants, from Detroit's Big Three to Japanese, Korean and European brands with large factories in the South and Midwest. Most build some models here and import others, so each listing names the US plants, the models they build, and the well-known models that come from Canada, Mexico, Asia or Europe.
A US-built vehicle still uses parts from around the world. The window sticker on every new car shows its final assembly point and the share of US and Canadian parts.
