Honda VIN Decoder

VIN is the abbreviation of vehicle identification number. Automakers use it as a simple and reliable method of classification and accounting. Every vehicle has a unique VIN code.

VIN code as the concept appeared relatively recently in 1975. It was adopted by a number of international regulations designed to streamline and unify the system of marking and identification of vehicles. So today the VIN of most vehicles are subjects to a single structure.

To understand what is needed and what information is encoded in the VIN code, we can use a Honda VIN decoder to find out all the information about the vehicle. The VIN code can be located in 2 places:

• on the dashboard on the driver side where the windshield comes in contact with the hood;
• on the sticker on non-removable parts.

The main sticker is usually located on the driver's door. In addition to the VIN code, the sticker contains a month and a year of manufacture, country of manufacture, a bar code with full information about the car and other information depending on the model.

According to the standards, the VIN codes on Honda cars consist of seventeen characters such as digit alphanumeric code with three mandatory groups of characters. A Honda VIN number decoder shows what each of the characters means.

First three characters (WMI) represent the country and manufacturer. The next six characters (VDI) indicate the type of the car, design, body type, engine, transmission. The last eight characters (VIS) identify a specific instance of the car, year and place of issue, serial number. The VIN decoder Honda spends seconds on decoding the VIN number.
