The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is a 17-digit code that is used in the same way that a name would be. It can tell you a number of things about your car. The first three digits tell you information about the location and manufacturer of your car (otherwise known as the World Manufacturer Identifier (WMI):
- The first digit (or letter) tells you the country of origin.
- The second digit or letter tells you the manufacturer.
- The third digit or letter tells you the model of your car.
This wikibooks article is a great breakdown of all the WMI codes.
What do the last 6 digits of a VIN mean?
The last six digits of a VIN is simply a production number. Each car receives one as it’s being assembled. It doesn’t mean anything other than the identifier for your particular car.
