1st gen Suburban
The Suburban is now on its 11th(!) generation. This makes me wonder whether any vehicle model in the world beats it. Whaddaya got, Oppo?

Now in its 80th year – the term “ SUV ” wasn’t even around in 1935 – the Chevy Suburban is the longest-running uninterrupted-production-vehicle nameplate ever. It’s been called a “Texas minivan ,” a tongue-in-cheek wink at its size.

The Thunderbird went 11 generations also, albeit in a shorter period of time.

I don’t know about actual generations, but it’s the longest running nameplate there is. Bar none.

I think it depends on if you consider the yearly restyles that many american cars had in the 50's and 60's as seperate generations.
