How this VIN pattern is read

|---|---|---|
| 1–3 | WAU | AUDI AG · World manufacturer identifier |
| 4–8 | J8HFF | Model, body style, engine and restraint system |
| 9 | × | Check digit — computed per vehicle, not part of the build |
| 10 | J | Model year — 2018 |
| 11 | × | Assembly plant |
| 12–17 | ×××××× | Production sequence number, unique to each vehicle |
