Hyundai Translead trailer VIN decoder,
from the NHTSA record.

A World Manufacturer Identifier is the first three characters of the VIN. NHTSA assigns each one to a manufacturer, and vPIC records the vehicle type and country it was issued for. The code below is the ones verified for Hyundai Translead in vPIC: 3H3. The list is built from the manufacturers the VINs sampled for this page decode to, and NHTSA can have issued Hyundai Translead other codes for other plants and vehicle types. All of them appeared in the 150 Hyundai Translead VINs sampled from FMCSA roadside inspection records for this page.

HYUNDAI DE MEXICO, S.A. DE C.V. also files HYUNDAI and KIA with NHTSA, in some cases under the codes above. Where a code is filed for more than one make, the makes-filed column says so. A VIN that starts with a code not in this table can still be a Hyundai Translead: decode it to check.

3H3V382K6RJ101150 is a Hyundai Translead trailer recorded in a roadside inspection and decoded clean by vPIC. Reading it left to right:

• Positions 1 to 3, 3H3. The WMI. vPIC resolves it to HYUNDAI DE MEXICO, S.A. DE C.V., filed for trailers and assigned to Mexico.
• Positions 4 to 8, V382K. The vehicle descriptor, whose meaning Hyundai Translead's manufacturer defines in its filing. For this VIN vPIC read body class Trailer, trailer type Kingpin and length 38 from these five characters.
• Position 9, 6. The check digit, computed from the other sixteen characters. vPIC reports this VIN with error code 0, so the digit calculates correctly and the VIN was read right.
• Position 10, R. The model year code. vPIC decodes it as 2024. vPIC flags the code as ambiguous for this filing (year codes repeat every 30 years), so confirm against the certification label.
• Position 11, J. The assembly plant. vPIC names Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico.
• Positions 12 to 17, 101150. The production serial. It identifies the unit and decodes to nothing on its own.

vPIC's own pattern for this unit is 3H3V382K*RJ: the positions it decoded from, with the check digit masked. Two Hyundai Translead VINs that share that pattern share every attribute vPIC filed for it and differ only in the check digit and the serial.

Two reads of the gross vehicle weight rating, both from the federal record. First, what the manufacturer registered with NHTSA:

• HYUNDAI DE MEXICO, S.A. DE C.V. Registered with NHTSA in Tijuana, B.c., Mexico. Registered vehicle types: Trailer, Class 6: 19,501 - 26,000 lb (8,845 - 11,794 kg) to Class 8: 33,001 lb and above (14,969 kg and above). 150 of the sampled Hyundai Translead VINs decoded to it.

Second, the sample: vPIC returned no GVWR class for any of the 150 Hyundai Translead VINs decoded for this page. For trailers that is the norm. The rating is on the certification label on the unit, not in the builder’s VIN filing, so a decode cannot supply it.

• Trailer: 150 units

If the VIN is not to hand, the rating is on the certification label on the unit itself; how to find GVWR walks through where to look.

2 real Hyundai Translead VINs from FMCSA's roadside inspection file, each decoded by vPIC with error code 0. Every field shown is what the manufacturer filed; a field that is missing was not filed for that pattern. Paste any of them into the decoder above to see the full card.

FMCSA's Inspections Per Unit file (data.transportation.gov, dataset wt8s-2hbx) records every vehicle in a roadside inspection with the make code the inspector typed. It holds 277,158 semi-trailer records under the code HYTR and 230,437 semi-trailer records under the code HYUNDAI TR. Native Base pulled 150 distinct VINs from those codes and sent them to NHTSA vPIC in batches: 150 came back, 150 decoded as HYUNDAI TRANSLEAD TRAILERS, and 148 with a clean error code. The decode, not the inspector's code, decides what a unit is, which is why the same make appears under several spellings in the file.

• Model years in the sample: 1993 to 2024.
• Plants vPIC named most: Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico (98) and Rosarito, Baja California, Mexico (52).
• Vehicle types vPIC lists under the HYUNDAI TRANSLEAD TRAILERS make: Trailer.
• WMIs verified one by one through vPIC DecodeWMI; manufacturer registrations from GetManufacturerDetails. Fetched 2026-09-27.
