The same build, other model years

Mazda used the VIN pattern JM3ER2A5 for 2 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 JM3 MAZDA MOTOR CORPORATION · World manufacturer identifier
4–8 ER2A5 Model, body style, engine and restraint system
9 × Check digit — computed per vehicle, not part of the build
10 B Model year — 2011
11 × Assembly plant
12–17 ×××××× Production sequence number, unique to each vehicle

NHTSA safety ratings

Crash-test results are published per model year and body style, so they cover the 2011 Mazda CX-7 as a whole rather than this build alone.

Rollover
