NHTSA Product Information Catalog and Vehicle Listing (vPIC)

Metadata Updated: December 7, 2023

The NHTSA Product Information Catalog and Vehicle Listing (vPIC) is a consolidated platform that presents data collected within the manufacturer reported data from CFR 49 Parts 551 - 574 for use in a variety of modern tools. NHTSA's vPIC platform is intended to serve as a centralized source for basic Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) decoding, Manufacturer Information Database (MID), Manufacturer Equipment Plant Identification and associated data. vPIC is intended to support the Open Data and Transparency initiatives of the agency by allowing the data to be freely used by the public without the burden of manual retrieval from a library of electronic documents (PDFs). While these documents will still be available online for viewing within the Manufacturer Information Database (MID) module of vPIC one can view and use the actual data through the VIN Decoder and Application Programming Interface (API) modules.
