Polaris Vehicle Identification Numbers
The Polaris Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is a unique number used to identify your vehicle.
Knowing the VIN of your Polaris can help you find out important information about your vehicle, such as Model Year, Model Number, Engine Serial Number, Factory Warranty, Extended Service Contract, Guides and Manuals, Product Recalls and Safety Bulletins.
It can also help you find the right parts and accessories for your vehicle.
Polaris vehicles use the industry standard of a 17-digit VIN:
Digits 1-3: Manufacturer of the vehicle
Digits 4-8: Vehicle attributes
Digit 9: Check digit
Digit 10: Model Year
Digit 11: Plant code
Digits 12-17: Sequential numbers
For units that are older than 1999 the VIN’s are 7 digits long. The 2nd and 3rd digits indicate the year.
