The last six digits of the VIN refer to the final six characters of the vehicle identification number on the motor vehicle license. Below is relevant information about the VIN: 1. Door pillar: Except for trailers and motorcycles, it can be found on the door hinge pillar, door lock pillar, or one of the door edge pillars near the driver's seat; fixed on the left side of the dashboard; or fixed on the inner side of the door near the driver's seat. 2. Left side of the dashboard, below the windshield: In China, the VIN of most cars can be found on the left side of the dashboard or below the windshield. 3. Motor vehicle license: New licenses usually print the VIN in the "VIN" column. 4. Other locations: Such as on insurance policies, various nameplates in the engine compartment, or the driver's side door pillar.

Hey, I just got a new car and found out that the VIN is often located on the edge of the driver's side door frame, below the windshield, or on the vehicle registration documents. It's a 17-character string, and all you need to do is find the location—the last 6 digits are the car's unique serial number. I used a mobile app to scan the VIN, and it decoded the production batch and assembly sequence—super useful for insurance or used car transactions. When parking, make sure the lighting is good, and don’t scratch the label to avoid damaging the paint. Safety first. By the way, the last 6 digits are crucial for vehicle history checks, as they can reveal accident or recall records. In short, it's easy to find, but don’t overlook privacy—don’t share the VIN carelessly.

Is the Punk Cat an Electric Car?

Ora Punk Cat is a pure electric vehicle. Here is an introduction to the Ora Punk Cat: 1. Exterior Design: It bears a striking resemblance to the first-generation Volkswagen Beetle. To differentiate it from the Beetle, the Ora Punk Cat incorporates extensive chrome accents and a modern two-tone color scheme, creating a unique sense of 'contradiction' in its appearance. 2. Interior Design: It adopts an extremely 'contradictory' design style. The highly retro three-spoke steering wheel immediately evokes a vintage aesthetic, complemented by multiple classically styled air vents that further enhance the atmosphere. However, the new car also features numerous modern elements such as LCD screens and instrument panels, pulling the design back to reality and generating a strong sense of contradiction.

Why Do New Cars Have Higher Fuel Consumption?

This is because new cars are in the break-in period, where the internal engine resistance is relatively high, and the coordination between various components has not yet reached its optimal state, leading to increased fuel consumption. After the break-in period, the car's fuel consumption will return to normal levels. Below are the objective factors contributing to higher fuel consumption in new cars: Impact of Traffic Jams: For example, when driving out and encountering traffic congestion, frequent starting and braking during traffic jams significantly wastes fuel, causing much higher fuel consumption during such times. Blockage issues also have a substantial impact on fuel consumption. Highway Driving: When driving on highways, opening the sunroof or side windows increases wind resistance, which in turn increases fuel consumption. Therefore, it is better to use the air conditioning rather than opening the windows while driving on highways.
