Introduction
This document provides guidance to analytical users of Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
decoding information generated for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s crash
studies using NHTSA’s Product Information Catalog and Vehicle Listing (vPIC). The vPIC VIN
decoder is built based on the vehicle manufacturer submissions to NHTSA as mandated by the
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 49 Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) Part
565. The vPIC VIN decoder is intended for use on VINs with model years (MY) 1981 and later.
Vehicles prior to 1981 did not have standardized VINs and are not included in the decoding
capability for the system. The 49 CFR Part 565 requires vehicle manufacturers to submit VIN
deciphering information to NHTSA for the following seven vehicle types: passenger cars,
multipurpose passenger vehicles, trucks, buses, trailers/trailer kits, motorcycles, incomplete
vehicles, and low-speed vehicles. Therefore, vPIC is capable of decoding VINs for these seven
vehicle types. In addition to these seven vehicle types, NHTSA receives voluntary submissions
from some manufacturers for their off-road vehicle VINs that can also be decoded through vPIC
VIN decoder.
Primarily, the VIN decoding information in vPIC is based on the manufacturer reported data
from 49 CFR Part 565 submissions. Some of this information is mandatory per the regulation,
but manufacturers may also submit a variety of information that is not mandatory. The
information submitted varies by manufacturer, vehicle type and MY. The mandated information
for each vehicle type can be found in 49 CFR 565, Table I.
In certain areas of key interest, such as driver assistance technologies, NHTSA does research and
adds additional supplemental data. NHTSA searches OEM websites for vehicle manuals, press
releases, etc., to identify new technologies that may be optional or standard equipment on
specific vehicles by make, model, MY, and trim level. The search is performed for:
• Light-duty and medium-/heavy-duty vehicles manufactured by the major light-duty
vehicle manufacturers for vehicle MYs 2017 and newer.
The following is a list of vehicle makes for which supplemental data is gathered from the
internet.
• Acura
• Alfa Romeo
• Audi
• Bentley
• BMW
• Buick
• Cadillac
• Chevrolet
• Chrysler
• Dodge
• Fiat
• Ford
• Genesis
• GMC

3
If manufacturers provide information about driver assistance technologies in their 565
submissions, the manufacturer submitted information is used for VIN decoding instead of the
supplemental information.
For motor vehicles and trailers involved in crashes, VINs are collected in NHTSA’s crash data
collection systems, the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS), the Crash Report Sampling
System (CRSS), and the Crash Investigation Sampling System (CISS), and are decoded using the
vPIC VIN decoder. The vehicle information decoded by vPIC from a VIN is provided as
auxiliary files for the systems. Two vPIC VIN decode files are created for each data collection
system, one for motor vehicles (called vPICDecode) and one for trailing units (called
vPICTrailerDecode).
In the vPIC VIN decode files, information will be included only for the VINs that can be cleanly
decoded, i.e., with no major errors. See Section Error Code for the definition of cleanly decoded
VINs.
4
Data Elements
The vPICDecode file has 127 VIN decoded data elements, excluding key data elements. The
number of key data elements vary for different studies that have vPICDecode files. A list of the
key data elements can be found in each of NHTSA’s crash data collection program’s Analytical
User’s Manual (AUM), such as FARS AUM, CRSS AUM, and CISS AUM, etc.
The vPICTrailerDecode file has 23 VIN decoded data elements excluding key data elements.
This file only includes the data elements that are applicable to trailing units.
Error Code
When a VIN is decoded, one or more errors might be provided in the output. Cleanly decoded
VINs are those that have only one or more of the following error codes when they are decoded.
• 0 - VIN decoded clean. Check Digit (9th position) is correct.
• 1 - Check Digit (9th position) does not calculate properly.
• 10 - Off-road Vehicle Warning – This is not a vehicle identification number (VIN) for a
motor vehicle. This indicates that the manufacturer did not certify this product as
complying with the Federal motor vehicle safety standards which are applicable to motor
vehicles as defined at 49 U.S.C. 30102.
• 400 - Invalid Characters Present
When a VIN is decoded, there can be errors applicable to the decode. In such a situation, the
error codes are concatenated and separated by a comma. For example, error code combinations
for cleanly decoded VINs can include (0), (0,10), (1,10), (1, 400), (1, 10, 400).
In the VIN decode files, even though Error Code data element is lookup data type, only
concatenated error code IDs, not the concatenated error code names, are presented due to the size
concern of the concatenated name string.
Vehicle Descriptor
A VIN has 17 positions. Depending on the manufacturer production capabilities, some of the
positions contain a sequential number for the vehicle. To avoid releasing the full VIN that might
be used to link to personally identifiable information, vPIC decode file only contains the
characters excluding the sequential numbers and check digit number called a vehicle descriptor.
• For vehicle manufacturers that produce more than 2,000 vehicles annually, the vehicle
descriptor is positions 1 to 8, 10 and 11;
• For vehicle manufacturers that produce 2,000 or fewer vehicles annually, the vehicle
descriptor is positions 1 to 8 and 10 to 14.
Model Year
There are two sources for vehicle MY:
• The 10th digit of a VIN specifies vehicle MY, and Vehicle MY can also be reported on a
police crash report (PCR).
5
If there is MY reported on the PCR, PCR MY is used by vPIC to decode the VIN. If a PCR MY
is not reported, MY decoded from the 10th position of the VIN is used by vPIC to decode the
VIN.

Document Convention for “Data Elements, Definitions, and Codes”
This document includes several conventions to describe and group the data elements and
definitions provided. There are generally 5 sections for each data element.
1. The heading contains the group/subgroup of the data element, data element name, the file
in which the data element is included, and the data element type as follows.
Group/Sub-Group: Data Element Name [File as T, V] (Data Element Type)
Example: Exterior/Body: Body Class [VT] (lookup)
2. The second line contains the column name for data element as it appears in the files. For
lookup data elements, there are two columns, one for ElementNameID and one for
ElementName. For non-lookup data elements, there will be only one column for
ElementName.
Data Element Column Names in files: ElementNameId, ElementName
Example for a lookup data element: Column Names: BodyClassId, BodyClass
Example for a non-lookup data element: Column Names: ModelYear
3. The third line contains the datatypes for the columns. For lookup data elements, there are
two datatypes, one for ElementNameID and one for ElementName. For non-lookup
elements, there will be only one datatype for ElementName.
Column Datatypes in files: DataType for ElementNameId, Data Type for ElementName
Example for lookup data element: Column Datatypes: tinyint, varchar (80)
Example for non-lookup data element: Column Datatypes: int
4. The fourth section contains a general description of the data element.
5. The fifth section is a table with the list of attribute names and attribute IDs for the data
element for lookup data element types.
6
Group and Sub-Group
The decoded output data elements are grouped by vehicle systems/sub-systems. These groupings
are as follows.
• General
• Active Safety System
• Active Safety System/Backing Up and Parking
• Active Safety System/Forward Collision Prevention
• Active Safety System/Maintaining Safe Distance
• Active Safety System/Lane and Side Assist
• Active Safety System/Lighting Technologies
• Active Safety System/911 Notification

7
Files
There are two files described in this manual: vPICDecode file and vPICTrailerDecode file. The
vPICDecode file includes VIN decoding information for a motor vehicle, while
vPICTrailerDecode file contains decoding information for a trailing unit. For each data element,
the following notation is used to indicate in which file this data element appears.
• [VT]: this data element is included in both vPICDecode file and vPICTrailerDecode file.
• [T]: this data element is only included in vPICTrailerDecode file.
• The default, i.e., no bracket provided: this data element is only included in vPICDecode
file.
Data Element Type
The data element type describes whether a given data element’s values are a fixed list of possible
values or an open field for numbers or text. The following is a list of data element types.
• Lookup: the data element values are a finite list of possible values.
• String: this data element values are strings with free-form text.
• Int: the data element values are integers.
• Decimal: the data element values are decimal numbers.
Column Names
For lookup data elements, there are two columns in the files, one for ElementNameID and one
for ElementName. For non-lookup elements, there is only one column for ElementName. For an
example, for the data element Axle Count, there is only the name of data element name,
AxleCount, because this is an integer type data element. For another example, for the data
element Plant Country, which is a lookup data type, this line will contain both ID and name, i.e.,
PlantCountryId and PlantCountry.
Column Datatypes
The following is a list of the data types for the columns in the files.
• Decimal (x, y): the data element is a decimal with a total of x digits and number of
decimal digits is y.
• Int: the data element is an integer, i.e., 4 bytes.
• Smallint: the data element is a small integer, i.e., 2 bytes.
• Tinyint: the data element is a tiny integer, i.e., 1 byte.
• Varchar(x): the column contains data as character string with the maximum length as x.
• Datetime: the data element is a date/time type.

A TPMS is an electronic system designed to monitor the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires
on various types of vehicles. TPMS systems can be divided into two different types - direct and
indirect. Direct TPMS employs pressure sensors on each wheel, either internal or external. The
sensors physically measure the tire pressure in each tire and report it to the vehicle's instrument
cluster or a corresponding monitor. Indirect TPMS does not use physical pressure sensors but
measure air pressures by monitoring individual wheel rotational speeds and other signals
available outside of the tire itself.

fuel cell vehicles.
1. Mild hybrid is the system such as 12-volt start-stop or 48-volt belt integrator starter
generator (BISG) system that uses an electric motor to add assisting power to the internal
combustion engine. The system has features such as stop-start, power assist, and mild
level of generative braking features.
2. Strong hybrid systems, in vehicles such as the Toyota Prius, mainly consist of motors,
conventional gasoline engine, and battery, but the source of electrical charge for the
battery power is provided by the conventional engine and/or regenerative braking.
3. Plug-in hybrid systems, in vehicles such as the Toyota Rav4 Prime, mainly consist of
motors, conventional gasoline engine and battery. Plug-in hybrid vehicles are like strong
hybrids, but they have a larger battery pack and can be charged with an external source of
electricity by electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE).
4. Battery electric vehicles (BEV), such as the Tesla Model S or Nissan Leaf, have only a
battery and electrical motor components and use electricity as the only power source.
5. Fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV) use full electric drive platforms but consume
electricity generated by onboard fuel cells and hydrogen fuel.
