What is VIN?

Every Saab has a unique 17-character Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) that serves as its identity card. This standardised code, used by all manufacturers since 1981, contains key information about your car — the model, body type, engine, and production year.


All Swedish-built Saabs start with YS3 — "YS" stands for Sweden, and "3" is the code assigned to Saab. The following characters identify the specific model (900, 9-3, 9-5), body style (sedan, estate, convertible), transmission type, and engine variant.


You'll find your VIN on the vehicle identification plate. Knowing how to read it helps when ordering parts, checking vehicle history, or verifying specifications for your Saab.

Where to find your VIN?

  • On the dashboard near the windshield (driver's side)
  • Inside the driver's door jamb
  • On your vehicle registration document
  • On your insurance card
  • On the engine block
  • Under the hood on a sticker
  • In the spare tire compartment
  • On the vehicle title
