Jaguar VIN Decoder with MPG & Fuel Cost

Enter your Jaguar's 17-character VIN to decode its year, model and build details, see US model recall campaigns, and match EPA configurations where available. Set your mileage and fuel price to estimate running costs.

0/17 characters — letters and digits, never I, O or Q

Jaguar MPG and running costs by model

A quick model-level comparison before you decode. Enter a VIN above for EPA configurations matched to the decoded year and available powertrain details, then adjust your mileage and energy price. These preview figures are broader estimates, not exact year-and-trim ratings.

Annual estimates assume 12,000 miles, US average regular gasoline at $4.35/gal, diesel at $6.20/gal, or residential electricity at $0.17/kWh. Fuel prices dated 2026-10-05. Costs exclude maintenance, insurance, tax and depreciation.

Jaguar manufacturer and country codes

Jaguar's combustion cars and electric I-Pace have very different running costs. Confirm the powertrain in the decoded specification.

The first three characters form the World Manufacturer Identifier (WMI). These are verified examples, not an exhaustive list. A WMI can cover more than one retail brand; it identifies the manufacturer, not a model, engine or exact assembly plant. Country below refers to the WMI region assignment. Use the full decode for the reported build plant.

For US-standard passenger cars, and multipurpose passenger vehicles and trucks rated at 10,000 lb (4,536 kg) or less, a number in position 7 selects 1980–2009; a letter selects 2010–2039. This shortcut does not apply to every overseas-market vehicle, heavy truck or motorcycle. Model year can differ from the calendar year of manufacture. See every year code →

Where to find your Jaguar VIN

Start with the plate at the base of the windshield, usually on the driver's side, read from outside the car. Look next for the certification label in the front door opening. Compare the full 17 characters with the registration, title or insurance documents. Exact label and stamped-chassis locations vary by model, year and market; the owner's manual is the model-specific authority.

The 2010 XF handbook shows the VIN through the lower-left windshield and on a front-door hinge-pillar label. It specifies a different pillar side for China. Treat this as an XF example, and use your own model-year handbook for other Jaguars.
