Is the co-buyer of a car also the owner of the car?

Yes, a co-buyer of a car is typically considered a co-owner of the vehicle. When two or more individuals are listed as buyers on the purchase agreement, they share ownership rights and responsibilities for the car. This means both co-buyers have a legal claim to the vehicle, and decisions regarding it usually require mutual agreement. However, the specific ownership details can vary based on the financing arrangement and state laws.
