These Are The Automakers That Should Join The NASCAR Cup Series - Jalopnik

A reader-contributor poll asked which automakers should join the NASCAR Cup Series, and most responses pointed to foreign brands as a fit while the “Big Three” prepare for returns to stock car racing’s top series. Jalopnik’s roundup includes suggestions ranging from Rover (JLR could position Jaguar as electric luxury and Rover as a cheaper V8 alternative) to Mercedes, citing ties to U.S. manufacturing in Alabama and potential alignment with the Next Gen car. Other commenters floated bringing in a full-size sedan maker, including brands like Dodge, Toyota, BMW, Audi, Hyundai and Mercedes, as NASCAR’s origins suggest. The article also mentions BMW’s Neue Klasse styling and jokes about Nissan Altima drivers, plus BYD and Tata.
