Chevrolet and Ford use caps and lower case letters on their cars, these are people's names. Same with Honda and Toyota, but they use all caps on their cars.
Most of the others are brand names, and gramatically can do what they want.
SAAB is only name that based on an acronym. I always thought that when SAAB autos split from aircraft company, the acronym stood for the Swedish equivalent of "Swedish Automobile, AB". Hence SAAB. I think since the GM takeover, they went with "Saab".
