What are the last 8 digits of the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) called?

  1. Vehicle Code Section

  2. Vehicle Identification Section

  3. VIN registration code

  4. Ownership identifier

The correct answer is: Vehicle Identification Section

The last eight digits of the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) are referred to as the Vehicle Identification Section. This segment of the VIN provides crucial information about the vehicle's specific features, including details about its model, engine type, and other distinguishing characteristics set by the manufacturer. Each vehicle's identification section is unique, which assists in identifying and tracking the vehicle throughout its lifecycle. In contrast, the other terms do not accurately represent the last eight digits of the VIN. For instance, "Vehicle Code Section" typically relates to specific regulations or statutes governing vehicles rather than the VIN itself. "VIN registration code" suggests a broader concept that is not specific to the last eight digits. Lastly, "Ownership identifier" implies a designation related to ownership documentation or titles, which is not the role of the last eight digits in the VIN structure.
