List of vehicles sold in Canada but not the United States

Although the automotive markets of Canada and the United States share strong similarities, there are a number of vehicles which have been offered for sale only on one side of the border.
Among the vehicles below, some are merely rebadged versions of vehicles familiar to American drivers; some are market-specific derivatives sold only in Canada; and some are totally unique to Canada, and might even prove unfamiliar to repair personnel in the United States.
