The Jeep Cherokee Tops The List Of Most American-Made Cars You Can Buy


1. Jeep Cherokee

For the second year running the Jeep Cherokee is the most American-made car you can buy according to the survey from Cars.com. Out of 15 vehicles, 9 are from foreign brands. The study is conducted by calculating the total economic impact the production of a vehicle has on the local economy using a formula that includes where its parts are sourced from, where it’s built and how many jobs it creates. Low volume, fleet-only, and heavy-duty models are excluded from the study. The Cherokee is built in Belvidere, Illinois.

A survey was also conducted to figure out how important buying an American car is to consumers and the responses differed significantly by age. The results report that 61% of car shoppers between 18-34 cared if the car they buy benefited the U.S. economy. However, 71% of customers age 35-54 said it didn’t matter.
