What each VIN position means on a Bugatti

Every vehicle sold in the United States since 1981 carries a 17-character VIN under federal standard 49 CFR 565 (international standard ISO 3779). The letters I, O and Q are never used, to avoid confusion with the digits 1 and 0.

17-character VIN structure
Positions 1–3	World Manufacturer Identifier. Position 1 identifies the country of assembly. On a Bugatti it is a letter or digit identifying the country of assembly. Positions 2–3 identify the manufacturer and vehicle type.
Positions 4–8	Vehicle Descriptor Section. Model, body style, engine, restraint system and transmission, as coded by the manufacturer.
Position 9	Check digit. A number (0–9) or X, computed from the other 16 characters with a weighted modulus-11 formula. It detects typos and tampering — validate one here.
Position 10	Model year code. A repeating 30-year cycle (Y = 2000, 1 = 2001, …).
Position 11	Assembly plant. Manufacturer-assigned plant code.
Positions 12–17	Serial number. Unique production sequence of the vehicle.

Position meanings 4–8 are manufacturer-specific. Decoding the VIN returns the exact decoded values — see our data sources.
