How to Determine Vehicle Age from the VIN?

[EllianaFitz]

The 10th digit of the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) represents the code for the vehicle's production year. This code consists of a combination of 21 English letters and 9 numbers, specifically A to Y and digits 1 to 9. The letters I and O are excluded to avoid confusion with the numbers 1 and 0, and the number 10 is not used as it occupies two digit positions. Here is more information about the VIN: 1. The VIN is composed of 17 alphanumeric characters and is often referred to as the car's ID card. The combination of letters and numbers includes codes for the vehicle's model, year, and other details. 2. This alphanumeric combination has a total of 30 possible positions, ensuring that no two vehicles will have the same VIN within a 30-year period. Starting with code A corresponding to 1980 and progressing sequentially, you can determine the vehicle's production year.
