For many of us, cars are just a way of getting from point A to point B.

But for others, they are giant toys. More importantly, customisable toys that can be used for racing, modifying or simply showing off.

Car manufacturing in the US has undergone many transformational shifts in order to get us to this point today. Starting out with America’s first defining vehicle – the Ford Model T – and the assembly line that was birthed from it in 1913, other notable shifts include the introduction of the big three in 1920 – Ford, Chrysler and General Motors – and the technological renaissance of the 1980s, which saw smaller, more fuel efficient cars on the roads.

It’s safe to say that the manufacturing of cars in the US has come a long way. Today, the automotive influencers of the USA, are a go-to for many people either looking to purchase a vehicle or simply wanting to know more about car brands and types.

These car influencers are highly beneficial to car parts and accessories brands looking to step up their marketing campaigns and make more sales. Automotive influencer agencies exist exactly for this and are great at connecting these brands to their perfect influencer. In this blog, we will give these brands a head start by listing some of the top automotive influencers of the USA.
