VIN Decoder

Decodes Vehicle Identification Numbers into make, model, year, body class, plant and engine details through the official NHTSA vPIC API. No login, no proxy, no browser.

Input

Field	Type	Notes
`vins`	array	Required. 17-character VINs to decode.

Output

One row per VIN: vin, modelYear, make, model, manufacturer, vehicleType, bodyClass, doors, driveType, engineCylinders, displacementL, engineHP, fuelTypePrimary, transmissionStyle, plantCity, plantState, plantCountry, series, trim, decodedCleanly, errorCode, errorText.

Notes

A bad VIN is not an HTTP error. vPIC answers an unusable VIN with HTTP 200, an empty Make, and an ErrorCode listing what went wrong. Rows therefore carry decodedCleanly plus the raw errorCode/errorText rather than being silently dropped — a partially decoded VIN still tells you the manufacturer and country.
ErrorCode is a comma-separated list, and 0 means clean. It is matched exactly rather than by substring, so codes like 400 or 10 are not mistaken for success.
vPIC returns roughly 140 fields per VIN, most empty for any given vehicle. This Actor keeps the commonly useful subset and maps the empty strings it uses for absent values to null.
