They certainly are not. Tell me which ones?
Robert, you forget that the best-selling American vehicles are American style pickups. Styled and Engineered, and sometimes built in the US. With the occasional exception, like the subject of this thread. - RobertRyanExplorer

Hyundai, Toyota, BMW, etc... are not our vehicles. They are other country's vehicles sold here.
Which vehicles on that list were engineered outside NA? Which "several" do exist?
How about all of the Pickups. From a cursory glance the Viper, Chrysler 200 appear to be missing in action. Have to look at in detail. - ShinerBockExplorer

There are probably a few more that I am missing. Oh, and I am not including medium and heavy duty makes like Peterbilt, kenworth, and such. - RobertRyanExplorer

Which ones? Just curious....
I would guess mostly the smaller ones.
The micro cars, my Cruze, and prolly others that have an international market.
Not the trucks though.
Yeah, I know many of the small cars like the Spark, Sonic, Focus, and Fiesta are. Even the GM Colorado/Canyon twins. Not a lot, just a little more than a handful compared to the many US vehicles.
In addition, suspect few of the Japanese, S. Korean, and German vehicles on the road are engineered in N. America. They may be designed and built here though. - brulazExplorer

Parts for the Pickups, engines yes, overall no.Most of the Vans have been ,exception the Chevrolet Vans
Yes, forgot about the Euro-vans.
Anyway, these companies are international, with design, engineering and assembly of parts and the finished product spread out all over the globe.
And even ownership is becoming more global: FCA is primarily controlled by the Agnelli family of Italy.
