Product Information Catalog and Vehicle Listing (vPIC)
Powered by
Welcome to vPIC
The NHTSA Product Information Catalog and Vehicle Listing (vPIC) is a consolidated platform that presents data collected within the manufacturer reported data from 49 CFR Parts 551 – 574 for use in a variety of modern tools.
NHTSA’s vPIC platform is intended to serve as a centralized source for basic Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) decoding, Manufacturer Information Database (MID), Manufacturer Equipment Plant Identification and associated data.
More Info >
vPIC is intended for use on Model Years 1981 and forward. Vehicles prior to 1980’s VIN standard are not included in decoding capability for the system.
vPIC Patterns are based on Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) specifications received from the manufacturers following the 565 standard.
