美国汽车公司

美国汽车公司（American Motors Corporation，缩写：AMC）是1954年5月1日哈德遜汽車同納許·凱文納特公司（Nash-Kelvinator Corporation）合併而成的一家美國汽車公司，這在當時是美國歷史上最大的一筆公司合併案。雖然如此，當時的美國汽車市場是由底特律的三巨頭（即通用汽車、福特汽車和克萊斯勒）統治的，美國汽車公司的成立因此被視為以小博大。 它曾生產過悍馬、吉普和AMC系列汽車，取得了一定的成功。1987年3月9日，克萊斯勒宣佈將以15億美元（2023的$4,022,847,100）的價格收購該公司，美国汽车公司被收購後在1988年8月25日改名為“Jeep-Eagle”，1990年3月29日被克萊斯勒完全吞併。 超小型车 1955–1962：Metropolitan 1970–1978：AMC Gremlin 1979–1983：AMC Spirit 1981–1983：AMC Eagle（SX/4和Kammback） 1983–1987：Renault Alliance，原型為Renault 9 1984–1987：Renault Encore，原型為Renault 11 1987：Renault GTA，原型為Renault 9 小型車 1955–1956：Nash Rambler/Hudson Rambler 1957：Rambler Six/Rambler Rebel 1958–1969：Rambler American/AMC Rambler 1968–1970：AMC AMX 1968–1974：AMC Javelin 1970–1977：AMC Hornet 1975–1980：AMC Pacer 1978–1983：AMC Concord 跨界車 1980–1988：AMC Eagle 中型車 1958–1960：Rambler Six/Rambler Rebel 1961–1966：Rambler Classic 1958–1964：Rambler Ambassador（1958–1962年間又叫Ambassador by Rambler） 1965–1966：Rambler/AMC Marlin 1967–1970：Rambler/AMC Rebel 1971–1978：AMC Matador 大型車 1955–1956：Hudson Wasp 1955–1956：Nash Statesman 1955–1957：Hudson Hornet 1955–1957：Nash Ambassador 1965–1974：Rambler/AMC Ambassador 1967：AMC Marlin 1988–1992：Eagle Premier Corporate Entity Details: American Motors Corporation.
