Where is the QR code located on a compact car?
2 Answers
The QR code is located at the bottom left corner of the front windshield. Compact cars can be classified into Class A, B, C, and D. Class A: Class A (including A0 and A00) refers to compact cars. Generally, Class A cars have a wheelbase ranging from approximately 2.3 to 2.45 meters and an engine displacement of about 1.3 to 1.6 liters. Models such as the Ford Focus from Changan Ford, the Volkswagen Sagitar, Golf from FAW-Volkswagen, and the Lavida from SAIC Volkswagen are considered stars in the Class A segment. Class B: Class B mid-size sedans have a wheelbase of about 2.45 to 2.6 meters and an engine displacement ranging from 1.6 to 2.4 liters. The Class B market has gradually become the main battleground for domestic automakers. Models such as the Audi A4, Passat, Brilliance, and Eastar all belong to the Class B category. Class C: Class C premium sedans have a wheelbase of approximately 2.6 to 2.8 meters and an engine displacement of 2.3 to 3.0 liters. The most renowned Class C car in China is undoubtedly the Audi A6. Class D: Class D luxury sedans are mostly characterized by their imposing appearance, extremely spacious interiors, and powerful engines. They generally have a wheelbase exceeding 2.8 meters and an engine displacement of 3.0 liters or above. Common Class D models include the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, BMW 7 Series, Audi A8, Rolls-Royce, and Bentley, among others.
To find the QR code for a small car, mainly check three locations. The most common spot is the lower left corner of the windshield, right below the driver’s line of sight—many vehicle inspection stations focus on this area during checks. Another common location is the label attached to the passenger door frame, which can be seen by crouching down when opening the door. The third spot is on the vehicle conformity certificate inside the glove compartment; this QR code is primarily used to verify vehicle parameters. If dark window tinting prevents scanning the windshield QR code, avoid forcibly peeling it off—simply visit the vehicle inspection station for a replacement to avoid damaging the window film and creating more hassle.
