The article reports that, per the 2025 “most American cars” ranking from American University’s Made in American Auto Index—as highlighted by Design News — the top vehicles are largely built and assembled in the US, with components sourced domestically or from Canada, and that Tesla Model 3 and other models from Stellantis and other US-based automakers dominate the list. 

• Tesla overwhelmingly dominates the 2025 list of the most American cars, with multiple models ranking at the very top thanks to high percentages of US and Canadian parts, domestic assembly, and company presence.

• Stellantis (and particularly its Jeep sub-brand) also has a strong showing, indicating that traditional automakers continue to deliver vehicles with significant domestic content under the same criteria.

• The methodology for determining how “American” a car is includes not just final assembly location, but also component sourcing and corporate/brand headquarters—so even cars that are assembled in the US can rank low if their parts come from abroad.
