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[3]。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[4][5]。
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[6])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”[7],1990年3月29日被克萊斯勒完全吞併。[1]
