Finding the actual age or manufacturing month and year of a vehicle is easier than you think. You can use the VIN, or vehicle identification number, to find the month and year of manufacturing of any vehicle. Every vehicle comes with a VIN, which is easily accessible. In this article, we explain how to read the VIN number of Skoda vehicles and know their month and year of manufacturing.
A VIN number consists of multiple characters and digits and it could span up to 22 characters. However, the number of characters and digits varies from one carmaker to the next, but there are essentially 2 characters that are required to know the manufacturing date of any vehicle. In the case of Skoda cars and SUVs, their VIN number generally consists of 17 characters.
In Skoda vehicles, the VIN characters begin with either TMB (Rapid, Laura, etc.) or MEX (Slavia, Kushaq). The 6th character represents the month of manufacturing and the 10th character represents the year of manufacturing. You can use the table mentioned below to check the month and year of manufacturing of your Skoda vehicle.
