Enter the 17-character VIN of the car Chevrolet Lanos into the free decoder and it tells you the manufacturer, the model year and the country of manufacture. For the car Chevrolet Lanos we list the production years 1997 - 2002, 1 versions in total, the body styles Sedan and a power figure of 86 hp. The decoder reads the world manufacturer identifier in characters 1 to 3, the model year in character 10 and the plant in character 11 where one is coded.
The VIN identifies the car but does not describe its life. Records of accidents, mileage, theft or owners have to be looked up separately from the decoding. On a model Chevrolet Lanos you are considering, read the VIN on the car and then the VIN in the documents. They must match exactly, in all 17 characters.
