Wiki Decoding Tesla Model S VINs

[dirkhh]

The explanation for digit 7 has some issues... at some point (from the start?) all of the cars started to have the capability to add DC/FastCharge. My S60 shows an A as 7th digit - and unsurprisingly that did not magically change once I added DC/FastCharge as after-delivery option...

 

[pgiralt]

The VIN will only show what the car was ordered with at the time of delivery. If a 40 upgrades to 60 or if someone adds Supercharger or installs a Twin Charger, their VIN won't change - but you will always know what was shipped with the car originally.

Apologies for the English intrusion, but has anyone found anything from Tesla that puts official language on the 6th digit "2"? For the U.S. vehicles, we have official text for the "1". But I haven't seen any other values documented.

Thanks.

I think you mean digit 6?

1 = US Model
2 = EU Model

Wouldn't that make sense?

It would, but I was hoping for something official like this:

It would, but I was hoping for something official like this:

Ah, I see. The PDF indeed says "Restraint Systems (PC)" for Digit 6 (like the Start post).

I don't know if there is a difference in seatbelts or airbags between the US en EU models, but there probably is, otherwise the digit wouldn't be different.

I was referring to the table portion:

Restraint Systems (PC) and GVWR (MPV)	Digit 6
Manual Type 2 USA seat belts, dual front airbags, front/rear side airbags, knee airbags	1

Presumably the second row of that table has a description for what "2" means, but in a later or different version of the document.

have an E for the 10th digit so assume it means 2014.

Hello

In the German Forum one Membere hast got a changed VIN:

5YJSA2H11EFPxxxxx

This was the VIN in 2013:
5YJSA2CP4DFPxxxxx.
5YJ = Tesla
S = Model S
A = 5 Türen mit Schrägheck, Linkslenker, Hinterradantrag
2 = Sicherheitsgurte, Airbags Front, seitlich vorne+hinten, Knie
C = Einzellader mit Schnelladeoption
P = Performance-Modell
4 = Prüfziffer
D = Modelljahr 2013
F = Fremont
P = Production Vehicle
xxxxx = Sequenznummer der Produktion

E instead of D ist clear, but what means the H11 instead of CP4

Greetings and sorry for my bad englisch.

Karsten

The H in the 7th digit might be for a 3 phase charger.

I'd like to see a Japanese VIN.

 

[Hybris]

I also have H11... P85+ with dual chargers etc

 

[KaJu74]

My is still 5YJSA2DN2DFP19xxx

[Hybris]

krisb what is your delivery month? when did you order?

 

[JaredBanyard]

Looks like they may have just changed the formula... Here is my VIN for delivery Jan 6th:

5YJSA1S10EFPxxxxx

S60, Supercharger, Single Charger, Pano, Piano, Gray Napa, Tech, Sound, Fog, Cold Weather.

 

[ScottieLV]

VIN assigned yesterday and am concerned as I specified a 2014 Model S: Was told VIN will likely be refreshed/changed to represent the 2014 model year.

5YJSA1CP5DFP29459

 

[Honolulu MS]

I was assigned a 2014 vin number yesterday for a February delivery. 5YJSA1H10EFP29469.

 

[pgiralt]

Honolulu, what are the specs on your car? I think we need more data to figure out what the new formula is for 2014 models.

 

[Honolulu MS]

I was assigned a 2014 vin number yesterday for a February delivery. 5YJSA1H10EFP29469.

The specs are: Brown Metallic, Pano, 21" Grey Turbine, Tan Performance Seats with Obeche Wood Gloss, Supercharger Enabled, Tech Package, Air Suspension, Parking Sensors, For Lamps, Sound, Extended Leather, Alcantara Headliner, Interior Lighting, Shelf.

I would have added this to the bottom of my post -- but don't know how. Hope this helps.

 

[pgiralt]

Thanks. Is that a 60, 85, P85, or P85+? I'm going to assume P85 or P85+ based on the other specs.

 

[Honolulu MS]

Yes, a P85+
