How to read a Toyota bZ VIN
Characters 1-3 are the manufacturer code. Toyota uses these codes in NHTSA data: 2T1, 2T3, 3TM, 3TY, 4T1, 4T3, 4T4, 5TB, 5TD, 5TE, 5TF, 5YF ….
Characters 4-8 describe the bZ: body, engine, restraints and other equipment. Each maker sets its own layout, so a full decode is the safest way to read them.
Character 10 is the model year. For example, a 2027 bZ has V in position 10.
Character 9 is the check digit, 11 is the assembly plant and 12-17 are the serial number.
