Every Hyundai produced has its own unique VIN code, which is a 17-digit code made up of numbers and letters. The VIN code is an important source of information about every Hyundai car, because it is under it that the vehicle is kept in all important databases:

1. The first three characters of the VINThe first three characters are the manufacturer's code. In the case of the Hyundai brand, you will most often encounter the TMA code indicating vehicles manufactured in the Czech Republic (Tucson, i30 or Kona EV models). Vehicles manufactured in South Korea have a manufacturer code of KMH.
2. The fourth to ninth character of the VIN
The other six characters are the Hyundai descriptive code, in which general information about the vehicle is encoded - model, body type, engine type, production series, etc.
