The same build, other model years
Infiniti used the VIN pattern JN1EV7AR for 4 model years. Nothing but the year changes between these pages, so the price gap between them is depreciation on an identical car.
How this VIN pattern is read
A 17-character VIN carries two kinds of information: what was built, and which one it is. This page is the first kind — the nine highlighted positions.
| Positions | Characters | What they encode |
|---|---|---|
| 1–3 | JN1 | NISSAN MOTOR COMPANY, LTD · World manufacturer identifier |
| 4–8 | EV7AR | Model, body style, engine and restraint system |
| 9 | × | Check digit — computed per vehicle, not part of the build |
| 10 | G | Model year — 2016 |
| 11 | × | Assembly plant |
| 12–17 | ×××××× | Production sequence number, unique to each vehicle |
NHTSA safety ratings

Vehicle counts come from the 2,795 VINs of this build we have seen in dealer inventory. They are a sample of the road population, not a production figure.
