I can add these to the list, but there is already a system in place for those not in the list: when no country is automatically assigned, it checks the country of other vehicles listed with the same make & model, and uses that if all were the same.
And if no model is found, then it does it with the make if all models have the same country.
If the model is "unknown", then it checks across all models of the make. So for cases like Luxgen it should already work automatically. For cases like Kymco, it works only on models where the origin is the same for all; for example on the Freeway there is one with a different origin: https://www.imcdb.org/search.php?resultsStyle=asList&sortBy=0&make=Kymco&model=F- reeway (not counting the Freeway 100 etc.)

I moved the Sonderwagen 4 from Thyssen to Thyssen Henschel as apparently it was rather that name: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TM-170
https://www.imcdb.org/vehicles.php?make=Thyssen-Henschel&model=Sonderwagen+4&modelMatch=1&modelInclModel=on
Then remain the older ones (2 & 3) :
https://www.imcdb.org/search.php?resultsStyle=asList&sortBy=0&make=Thyssen&model=-
These would rather be from MOWAG according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mowag_MR_8
Is there a reason why these were listed as Thyssen?

For the Hyundai Porter [AU] (3rd generation), Wikipedia says it is based on Hyundai Grace.
The Hyundai Grace is origin Japan because just a rebadged vehicle, but the Porter is a new vehicle from Hyundai then, it can stay as origin South Korea :wink:

Are all [HR] Porter II? Or in some countries still named Porter?
We have a few without the "II": https://www.imcdb.org/search.php?resultsStyle=asList&yearFrom=&yearTo=&makeMatch=- 2&make=hyundai&modelMatch=2&model=HR&modelInclChassis=on&mk=&origin=&madein=&madefor=- &role=
And only two H100 [HR], not sure if these are correct

No objection to switch the (few) Unimog listed under "Offroad/SUV" to "simple truck", like the majority of these?

Wikipedia indeed mentions about the Mondeo that "it is a rebadged variant of the American-market Fusion", but on the other hand for the Fusion they mention that Ford Europe participated in the development.
So it i s a little a case of co-development like the recent Transit I suppose.

POn

The Fusion was launched in 2012, and the Mondeo was launched in 2014. The Sedan should be of US origin
