    Attention:
    Since model year 2010 (MY letter “A“), the 7th position in the VIN must no longer be a number but a letter according to U.S. regulations.
     
    In Mercedes-Benz and Smart cars, the numbers 0 to 9 in the 7th position (last figure of car type) of the VIN are replaced by the letters A to K.
     
    Accordingly, as from MY 2010 (“A“), the 7th position Character of the VIN:
     
   

0

=
