How this service works
Decode a 17-character VIN to manufacturer-supplied vehicle metadata via NHTSA's vPIC database. Returns identity (year, make, model, trim, series, body class, manufacturer), assembly plant (city, state, country), engine (cylinders, displacement, HP, fuel type, configuration, engine model), transmission (style, speeds), and body/weight specs. Curated to the ~30 fields agents actually use from vPIC's ~140-field response. Backed by NHTSA.gov; data is public-domain US government records.
Output
A JSON object with ok:true and an items array containing one vehicle record with fields for VIN, make, model, trim, series, body class, manufacturer, assembly plant (city/state/country), engine (cylinders, displacement, HP, fuel type, configuration, model), transmission (style and speeds), doors, drive type, vehicle type, GVWR class, and model year. Also includes total count and source provenance (provider, URL, license).
Example use cases
Example prompt
“Can you decode the VIN 1HGBH41JXMN109186 and tell me the make, model, engine, and where it was manufactured?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://2s.io/api/vehicle/vin-decodeWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need structured, programmatic vehicle data from a VIN without signing up for an API key or paying a monthly fee. Ideal for AI agents that occasionally need VIN lookups on a pay-per-call basis ($0.0024 USDC). Backed by NHTSA data, making it authoritative for US-market vehicles. Prefer over scraping or proprietary services when cost predictability and no-signup access are priorities.
Side effects
- Invalid VIN format (not 17 chars, contains I/O/Q) — request rejected before payment
- VIN not found in NHTSA database — ok:true but empty items array
- Ambiguous model year due to VIN decade rollover — provide optional modelYear param to disambiguate
- Payment failure via x402 — no result returned
- Upstream NHTSA API unavailable — service error
