After the collapse of the cotton market in the 1950s, Suzuki shifted its focus from looms to cars and motorcycles. Through an agreement with GM, they sold the Cultus as the Chevy Sprint in 1985 before entering the American market under their name with the launch of the 1986 Samurai. In 2004, Suzuki and GM bought Daewoo Motors, bringing the Daewoo-built Forenza, Reno, and Verona into their lineup. Sales reached their peak in 2006, but they quickly dropped during the Great Recession. Suzuki exited the U.S. car market in 2012. However, they're still the 5th largest seller of motorcycles and ATVs in America.
Whether you want one of Suzuki's legendary off-roaders or looking for one of their practical hatchbacks, we can help you with your vehicle search. EpicVIN's online DMV VIN check tells you all the information encoded in the VIN, making it easy to compare factory information with sales listings. Once you've narrowed your choices, use our VIN reports to get detailed information on the vehicle histories, including accidents, thefts and, title changes.
The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) identifies individual vehicles. It isn't just a serial number. All the digits identify specific details about the vehicle. Including where and when the vehicle was manufactured, its equipment level, and engine. Using our Suzuki VIN lookup, you can find tons of information about the vehicle with its VIN and compare it to the information in the vehicle's sales listings. Doing this helps you verify the vehicle's authenticity while ensuring it's the model you want to buy.
Getting VIN information is easy: type the number into the search block and click «Check VIN». Need to look up vehicle information and don't have the VIN handy? We also have a license plate lookup tool. If you know the plate number and state of the vehicle, our site can find the VIN registered under the plate and related information.
If you want to know more about a vehicle, order a VIN report. This service includes vehicle owner lookup, as well as information gathered from a variety of government and commercial databases. Using this information, we can build a complete vehicle history, including accident claims, title brands, and lien information. These reports help you identify and avoid vehicles that have hidden damage or legal issues.
To decode the VIN, first, you need to find it. The VIN is used to identify the vehicle on official documents; therefore, it can be found on the title, registration, insurance policy, and sometimes service receipts. Suzuki also places the VIN around the vehicle, making it easy to identify.
Standing next to the driver's side door, look through the windshield next to the wiper cowl. You should see a small metal plate with the VIN number on the dashboard.
On some older vehicles, like the Sidekick and Samurai, the VIN is printed on the driver's side A-pillar or the side of the dash. You can only see the dash plate when the door is open. There is a sticker with model information on most other vehicles on the driver's side B-pillar. Open the door and look for this sticker near the door latch.
Look under the hood. There are four places where Suzuki prints the VIN in the engine compartment:
Don't forget you can use EpicVIN for a motorcycle VIN check. On motorcycles, Suzuki puts the VIN on a plate or sticker on or near the steering head, just below the handlebars. On four-wheelers, the VIN is stamped somewhere on the back of the frame, usually next to one of the mudguards. On scooters, the VIN is printed on a plate attached to the lower fairing, on the right side down tube of the frame, and on the left side of the engine crankcase.
What kind of information can you get when you use our Suzuki VIN decoder? Here's a breakdown of each digit in your VIN and what it can tell you about a car, motorcycle, or ATV.
Position 1 – Manufacturing Country
This is where the vehicle was built.
| Code | Origin |
|---|---|
J | Japan |
1, 4 or 5 | United States |
2 | Canada |
K | Korea |
Position 2 – Manufacturer
Suzuki vehicles sold in North America are built by four companies.
| Code | Manufacturer |
|---|---|
S | Suzuki |
G | General Motors |
L | Daewoo/GM Korea |
Z | Nissan |
Vehicles built at CAMI use “S”, even though the plant is owned by General Motors.
Position 3 - Manufacturing Area
This could refer to one plant, or several plants under one manufacturing group.
2 and 3 - CAMI
5 - Daewoo
6 – Nissan
Other digits are used for Suzuki Japan. Using our Suzuki ATV VIN decoder or our motorcycle decoder? In this position, a “1” is used for motorcycle factories.
Position 4 – Model or Displacement
This identifies the nameplate, whether it's a Vitara, Swift, Esteem, XL7 or something else from Suzuki's lineup. Model designations change from year to year.
On motorcycles, this digit is used for the displacement. The higher the letter, the larger the engine is: an “A” is used for 49cc engines, while a bike with a “Z” has a displacement of 1,500cc or more.
Position 5 – Body Style or Engine Type
| Code | Body Style or Engine Type |
|---|---|
A | 2WD 5 door hatchback |
B | 4WD 5 door hatchback |
C | 2WD 4 door notchback |
D | 4WD Class C Hard Top or Truck |
E | 2WD Class C Hard Top |
R | Four Door Sedan |
If you're using our Suzuki motorcycle VIN decoder, it can check this digit on most models to find the engine design:
| Code | Engine |
|---|---|
1 | 2-stroke single |
2 | 2-stroke twin |
3 | 2-stroke three or four cylinder |
4 | 4-stroke single |
5 | 4-stroke twin |
7 | 4-stroke four cylinder |
Position 6 – Engine or Version
On cars, this position is used for the engine. Here are a few common engine designations used by Suzuki:
| Code | Engine |
|---|---|
0 | 1.6 liter EFI, SOHC or 4.0 liter MFI, DOHC |
1 | 1.6 liter MFI, SOHC |
2 | 1.8 liter MFI DOHC |
3 | 1.3 liter EFI SOHC |
4 | 2.0 liter MFI DOHC |
6 | 2.5 liter MFI DOHC |
9 | 2.4 liter MFI DOHC |
Suzuki motorcycles use this position for the model revision. This starts with “A”, then “B” for the first update, “C” for the second and so on.
Position 7 and 8: Design and Trim
This is the vehicle's version and trim level. The meaning of this character varies from model to model. On motorcycles, position 8 is almost always “A”, since just one version of the motorcycle is sold. Different characters may be used for bikes with major equipment options, like ABS.
Position 9 – Check Digit
This is generated by a mathematical formula that uses other digits in the VIN as inputs. This check digit helps eliminate data entry errors.
Position 10 – Year of Production
This alternates between numbers 1-9 and letters excluding “I”, “O”, “Q”, “U” and “Z”.
A 2023 model uses “P”, while numbers were last used between 2001 and 2009.
Position 11 – Assembly Plant
Most U.S. cars and SUVs were built in one of three plants:
2: Suzuki Kosai, Japan
3: Suzuki Iwata, Japan
6: Ingersoll, Canada
Position 12-17 – Serial number
Since there are only 6 digits reserved for the serial number, these numbers are reused. However, no two vehicles will have an identical VIN.
Want to know what you can learn when you use our Suzuki VIN number lookup? Here are a few examples:
Jego umiejscowienie różni się w zależności od producenta. Istnieją jednak trzy miejsca, w których można znaleźć kod w większości pojazdów:
- Spójrz przez przednią szybę w kierunku deski rozdzielczej. Po stronie kierowcy powinieneś dostrzec małą metalową tabliczkę z wybitym numerem.
- Otwórz drzwi po stronie kierowcy. Spójrz na przód i bok słupka drzwi, aby znaleźć naklejkę identyfikacyjną. Zwykle zawiera logo producenta. VIN powinien znajdować się na tej naklejce.
- Otwórz maskę. Naklejka może znajdować się na przegrodzie silnika lub w pobliżu bocznego kielicha amortyzatora po stronie pasażera. Niektóre samochody mają wygrawerowany numer w jednym z tych miejsc.
Ponieważ numer ten służy do identyfikacji pojazdu w oficjalnych dokumentach, można go również znaleźć w dokumentach TITLE, naklejce na szybie i polisie ubezpieczeniowej.
Dekodujemy również numery dla pojazdów kempingowych, aut ciężarowych i motocykli. Jeśli chcesz odszyfrować numer VIN dla pojazdu kempingowego, to upewnij się, że jest to numer wydany przez producenta podwozia, a nie dostawcę wyposażenia kempingowego.
Nie. Wszystkie nowe samochody posiadają numery VIN. W samochodach kanadyjskich i meksykańskich zazwyczaj używa się tego samego formatu co w USA. W innych krajach są stosowane osobne formaty.
To od producenta zależy, co uwzględnia w niektórych sekcjach numeru. Na przykład niektóre firmy nie uwzględniają informacji o skrzyniach biegów lub poziomach wyposażenia.
Zwykle nie. Kilku producentów stempluje kod na silniku. Jeśli VIN na silniku i samochodzie pasują do siebie, to jest to oryginalny silnik. W większości pojazdów nie ma żadnej szczegółowej informacji, która wiąże silnik z konkretnym pojazdem. Co najwyżej możesz sprawdzić pojazd na naszej stronie internetowej i dowiedzieć się, czy zamontowano inny rodzaj silnika. Na przykład, jeśli ktoś wstawił silnik V8 do Forda Mustanga, z naszej strony być może dowiesz się, że pierwotnie był w nim zamontowany silnik V6.
