The brand and model of the vehicle are indicated on the car's nameplate, with slight variations in location depending on the model. In most cases, it can be found in the engine compartment, the lower part of the passenger-side door, or the left side of the dashboard. The vehicle brand and model can also be seen in the car owner's manual and the insurance policy. Below is some related information: Introduction to the Nameplate: The nameplate provides more detailed information, including the car brand, engine displacement, power, VIN code, and more. One crucial function of the nameplate is that the vehicle's manufacturing date listed on it can be used to determine the car's age. Introduction to the VIN Code: The VIN code is like a car's ID card, consisting of 17 alphanumeric characters. Each vehicle's VIN is essentially unique. The VIN code includes information about the manufacturer, production year, model code, engine code, and assembly location. It can also be used to check whether the vehicle has been involved in any traffic accidents. In certain special cases, the VIN can be used to accurately identify your vehicle. During traffic violations, traffic police departments can also use the VIN code to issue penalties for the vehicle.
