The Cars.com American-Made Index showcases 99 vehicles built right here in America. According to Cars.com's experts, only models that satisfy rigorous standards for being American-made earn a spot on this list. As more buyers prioritize U.S.-built cars, this index will only grow in significance. This year, five standout Hyundai vehicles made the cut.
Hyundai Secures Five Spots on the 2025 Cars.com American-Made Index
Starting with over 400 potential models, Cars.com meticulously trims the field to a Top 99, meaning Hyundai outperformed hundreds of competitors for inclusion in the 2025 index. That year saw the Santa Fe, Santa Fe Hybrid, IONIQ 5, Tucson, and Santa Cruz secure their places.
Randy Parker, president and CEO of Hyundai Motor North America, reflected on this milestone: "Having five vehicles on the Cars.com American-Made Index underscores Hyundai's deep commitment to U.S. manufacturing and innovation." Parker highlights the brand's "substantial and ongoing investment in American workers."
Concerns have been rising over declining manufacturing jobs in recent decades, and many consumers are eager to support American-made goods. Hyundai shares that commitment, crafting vehicles that embody true "American-Made" values. Cars.com determines its rankings through five key metrics: the percentage of U.S. and Canadian parts, the size of the U.S. manufacturing workforce, assembly location, and origin of the engine and transmission. Based on these factors, five Hyundai models earned their spots.
Earning a place on Cars.com's index isn't easy—its experts apply some of the strictest criteria in the industry to give buyers clear insights. While any manufacturer would celebrate one or two models making the list, Hyundai's achievement of five is a testament to its dedication to U.S. production.
