And then it became NAS... North American Specification. That covered US, Canada and Mexico. Probably still does as they use a unique VIN sequence as does China. I suspect that all JLR product now meets California regs by default, so there may no longer be that distinction. I wait for one of our west coast hippie colleagues to correct me.

NAS now does not include Mexico but it does include American 'colonies' such as Guam and the  US Virgin Islands

Cool... thanks!

Is this from the actual manual or a pdf version?  if it's a pdf I'd be interested in a copy.

Fascinating discussion.

Acronyms are often used much more widely than their original application.


And a Spanish speaker in South America may wonder why their word for "nothing"  is always spelt in upper case. :stars
