About the Fiat 500

Enter the 17-character VIN of the car Fiat 500 into the free decoder and it tells you the manufacturer, the model year and the country of manufacture. The car Fiat 500 is listed for 1957 - 2020. Our data shows the body styles Hatchback, Convertible, a power value of 135 hp and 9 versions in total. A VIN tells you the maker, the model year and the country of manufacture. Where the plant is coded in the 11th character, that can be read as well.

Past damage, odometer values, theft records and the number of owners are not part of a VIN, so no decoder can read them from the code alone. A separate history check is needed for that. For a used model Fiat 500, mismatches matter: a different character in the documents, a model year that does not fit the 10th character, or a VIN with the wrong length all deserve a closer look.

Learn more about VINs

A VIN is built from six parts, and each one says something about the vehicle. Our guides explain how to read it and what it can and cannot tell you.

Before you buy a used Fiat 500

  • Compare the VIN on the dashboard, the door frame and the documents. All three should match.
  • Look for signs of tampering around the VIN plate and the door frame sticker.
  • Ask for the service history and check it against the car.
