Usage
- See the Parameters section of this document for basic explanations of what data to enter in each parameter.
- See WikiProject Automobiles/Conventions for detailed explanations of what data to enter in certain parameters and instructions on how to correctly format the data.
- When entering more than one data point per parameter, use the unbulleted list template
{{Ubl | fact one | fact two | et cetera }}to put each entry on a separate line. Do not use <br> to create line breaks in the infobox. - In the infobox templates below, conversion templates have been provided for your convenience. After copying the infobox template into the article, enter the data, replacing "NNNN" with numeric entries. When entering data into the conversion template, enter digits without thousands separators; i.e. 4287 not 4,287.
