Lucid VIN decoder

Paste a Lucid VIN and see the model year, model, body, engine and the plant it was built in, from the record Lucid files with NHTSA. Free, no email, and the VIN goes only to NHTSA’s decoder, never to WhichTrim.

Lucid vehicle identification number

17 characters. The letters I, O and Q never appear in a VIN. Find it on the driver's-side dashboard, the door jamb, your insurance card or the title.

Lucid’s manufacturer codes (WMI)

Source: NHTSA vPIC

Lucid files 2 manufacturer codes with NHTSA. The first three characters of a Lucid VIN are one of them: they say who built the vehicle, what kind it is, and in which country. Built in United States (2 codes).

Code	Vehicle type	Built in	Filed by
50E	Cars	United States	Lucid Usa, Inc.
7UU	SUVs, vans and crossovers (MPV)	United States	Lucid Usa, Inc.

What each character means on a Lucid

Source: 49 CFR 565

Every Lucid VIN since the 1981 model year follows the federal format. Positions 4 to 8 are Lucid’s own code for the model, body, engine and restraints; the decoder reads them from Lucid’s filing, so they need no table here.

Position	Section	What it tells you
1–3	World manufacturer identifier	Who built it and where. 1, 4 and 5 are the United States, 2 Canada, 3 Mexico, J Japan, K South Korea, W Germany, S the United Kingdom.
4–8	Vehicle descriptor	Model, body style, restraint system, engine — the section that makes a VIN say which car this is rather than which unit.
9	Check digit	A checksum of the other sixteen characters. A VIN that fails it has been mistyped or invented.
10	Model year	A letter or digit, not the year itself: N is 2022, P 2023, R 2024, S 2025, T 2026. I, O, Q, U and Z are never used.
11	Assembly plant	The manufacturer's code for the factory that built this vehicle.
12–17	Serial number	The unit's own sequence number on that line.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA vPIC, 49 CFR Part 565

Is the Lucid VIN decoder free?

Yes, with no email and no account. The decode comes from NHTSA's vPIC database, the record Lucid files with the federal government for every vehicle it sells in the US.

Where is the VIN on a Lucid?

At the base of the windshield on the driver's side, readable from outside; on the certification label in the driver's door jamb; and on the title, registration and insurance card.

Does a decode show accidents or title brands?

No. A decode says what Lucid built. What happened afterwards (title brands, odometer readings, total losses) is in NMVTIS, sold by providers the Department of Justice approves.

Can I check Lucid recalls by VIN?

The decode opens the model year's page here, which lists every recall campaign on file. Whether this exact vehicle is still unrepaired is answered by NHTSA's lookup at nhtsa.gov/recalls, which reads Lucid's own list.

Is my VIN stored?

No. The decode runs in your browser against NHTSA's public database. WhichTrim never receives it.
