Hyundai reached American shores in 1986 with the Mitsubishi-based Excel. Although the company didn't introduce its first engine and transmission until 1991, they are now the 8th largest vehicle brand in America. Today, the company is well known for its sedans, SUVs, high-performance “N” division, and class-leading Ionic electric cars.
Are you shopping for a used Hyundai? EpicVIN's tools make it easy to decode the VIN, so you can learn how vehicles were configured from the factory. This includes where and when they were made and their standard equipment. If you want to learn more, order a VIN report. It will include a basic vehicle owner lookup, as well as data collected from government and corporate records. We are an official National Motor Vehicle Title Information Service (NMVTIS) source.
The VIN number is a unique identifier issued to every vehicle at the factory. Since 1981, this number has used a standard 17-character format containing vehicle information. This includes the model, engine, when, and where it was built. Our Hyundai VIN lookup will decode this number for you, so you can find out what all those characters mean. This makes verifying model information easy before looking at a vehicle.
Want to know more about a vehicle before you buy it? Order one of our vehicle reports. We gather information from government and corporate databases to create a complete vehicle history. It includes title changes, accident reports, and more. Helping you to avoid vehicles that could be hard to register and insure due to legal issues or are hiding hidden damage.
Why is it important to do a DMV VIN check? Our Hyundai VIN decoder will tell you all the information in this code. This includes where and when the vehicle was manufactured, its engine, transmission, and other important details. This lets you verify that the information in sales listings is correct, saving you time when looking for a specific model.
There are several places you can find this number printed or stamped on the vehicle:
Since the VIN is critical, it may be found on vehicle paperwork, including titles, insurance policies, and service receipts. Still can't find the VIN? We also offer license plate lookup, which finds the VIN based on public vehicle registration records.

What kind of information can you find using EpicVIN's VIN search? Here are a few examples:
Las ubicaciones cambian de un fabricante a otro, pero hay tres zonas en las que se puede encontrar el código en la mayoría de los vehículos:
- Mira en el salpicadero a través del parabrisas. En el lado del conductor, deberías ver una pequeña placa metálica con el número estampado en ella.
- Abre la puerta del conductor. Busca una pegatina de identificación en la parte frontal y en el lateral del marco de la puerta. Suele incluir el logo del fabricante. El código debería aparecer en esa pegatina.
- Abre el capó. Puede que veas una pegatina en el cortafuegos o al lado de la barra antitorsión del lado del pasajero. Algunos autos tienen el número grabado en una de estas partes.
Puesto que este número se usa para identificar al vehículo en documentos oficiales, también lo puedes encontrar en el título, la pegatina de la ventana y las pólizas de seguros.
También decodificamos números de vehículos recreativos, camiones pesados y motos. Si necesitas decodificar el número de un vehículo recreativo, asegúrate de que sea el emitido por el fabricante del chasis, no el del proveedor de servicios de equipamiento adicional.
No. Los vehículos canadienses y mexicanos suelen tener el mismo formato. Otros países utilizan sus propios formatos.
Es el fabricante quien determina lo que se incluye en algunas partes del número. Por ejemplo, algunas empresas no incluyen información sobre la transmisión o los niveles de equipamiento.
Normalmente, no. Hay pocos fabricantes que estampan el código dentro del motor. En esos casos, si el VIN del motor y el del auto coinciden, se trata del motor original. En cambio, en la mayoría de los vehículos no hay nada que vincule un motor a un vehículo específico. Como mucho, buscar el vehículo en nuestra web te dirá si se ha instalado otro tipo de motor. Por ejemplo, si alguien pone un V8 en un Ford Mustang, nuestra página te dirá que originalmente traía un V6.
