I think you mean an INDIA co.?
I checked, best answer I could find.

". In the United States, the term Asian Indian is also used in order to avoid confusion between Indians from the subcontinent and Native Americans (American Indians). These days, using Indian to describe a Native American may be considered improper and even offensive by some*. Thus, even in the US, Indian would often to be taken to mean someone from India. And if one wanted to completely avoid ambiguity, then from India would suffice. "

Also East Indian was a prevalent answer.

with 17 0f the 21 plants located outside the U.S.A., it's gonna be interesting to see where they will come from, and how it will affect the Made in The USA percentage EM is striving for

Percentages are like statistics, easy to manipulate to get the desired result. Is EM's #3 "must have" of 90% "American-made" content of the Elio referring to the cost of the parts? Or 90% of the total parts required to build one. Not to mention "American-made" doesn't necessarily mean "Made in the USA". Mexico and Canada are both "North America", so technically they get 100% of their parts from either and still be correct in their statement. :rolleyes:

Someone posted the true meaning of "North American Made" via a list of quite a few countries/territories a while back.
Does anyone remember that?
And can anyone find and re-post that post?
