1 Answers
The specific location of the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) on a sedan varies depending on the model. Generally, it can be found in the following locations: 1. Lower left corner of the front windshield. 2. On the driver's side door hinge pillar, door lock pillar, or door edge, usually in a conspicuous position. 3. Inside the engine compartment. 4. If not found in the above locations, it might be fixed on the inner side of the door near the driver's seat. 5. In most Chinese sedans, the VIN is located on the left side of the dashboard, below the windshield, though positions may vary by model. Here is some additional information about the sedan VIN: (1) The VIN, also known as the Vehicle Identification Number, is similar to our ID card number. It is a unique code assigned by the manufacturer to identify a vehicle. (2) The VIN consists of a combination of 17 letters and numbers, ensuring that no two vehicles of the same model will have the same number within 30 years. Through these 17 digits, we can determine the vehicle's country of manufacture, production year, model, engine type, etc. Therefore, the VIN is often referred to as the 'car's ID card.'
