“A recent Cars.com survey shows a clear majority of Americans want to purchase a car that contributes substantially to the U.S. economy, but gauging such contributions is no small task. Cars.com has tried to do so since 2006 with the American-Made Index, an annual study that looks at various factors to determine just how homegrown a given car might be,” reports Cars.com writer Kelsey Mays.

Taking the number five spot is the beloved sports car, the Chevrolet Corvette. The iconic Chevy model is assembled in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
