How to Check a Car's Make and Model?
2 Answers
You can directly use the car's VIN code to check. Every car has a VIN code, which is equivalent to the car's ID number. This number is unique and cannot be tampered with. The car's VIN code contains a lot of information, such as the manufacturer, body type, engine type, production location, and manufacturing date. If car owners want to check the make and model of their car, they can use the car's VIN code to do so. The car's VIN code is usually written on the lower left corner of the front windshield, which car owners can check. The car frame also has a VIN code, but this VIN code is used for tracing purposes. When registering a new car, the frame number and engine number need to be imprinted.
Last time I helped a friend check a used car, I looked up the make and model. The easiest way is to take out the vehicle license and flip to the second page, where the 'Brand and Model' section is clearly written. For example, in a format like 'Audi FV7201BADG,' the first part is the brand, and the latter part is the specific model. You can also check the VIN code at the lower left corner of the front windshield—scan the QR code on the insurance policy or enter the 17-digit number into the 'Che300' app, and details like the manufacturer, engine displacement, and production year will all pop up. By the way, when buying a car, there's also a metal nameplate on the front door frame with stamped model numbers that are particularly accurate.
