Every year, American University’s Kogod School of Business releases a list of vehicles built with the largest percentage of American-sourced parts. Last year, the manual Ford Mustang GT took the top spot with a total score of 88.5. But this year, it’s no longer even in the top 20, because Ford now uses a Mexican-sourced manual transmission. This year’s Most American Cars are both Fords, the Lincoln Corsair and the Corsair plug-in hybrid. Both earned a total score of 86, beating the second-place Tesla Model 3 Long Range’s score of 82.5.
