Where is the VIN number in Hyundai Kona II [2020-2020]?

This guide covers the VIN number (vehicle identification number) locations for the Hyundai Kona II [2020-2020] produced between 2020–2020, including the fast “open-the-door” label and the hidden stamped chassis VIN.

Chassis Number Locations

Driver’s B‑Pillar (door jamb VIN label)

• Where to look: Open the driver’s door and locate the VIN/certification sticker on the B‑pillar (the vertical post between the front and rear doors). It’s typically lower down near the latch/strike area.
• Access: Easiest check—clean, high contrast, no tools needed.
• Note: This location is consistent and is the best first stop for LHD vehicles.
• Tip: Since this is usually the cleanest VIN, scan it directly with your phone to avoid mistyping a character like B/8, S/5, or O/0.

Front floor / under the front seat (stamped chassis VIN)

• Where to look: Check the front floor under the seat, using the pre-cut flap in the carpet. Lift the flap and you’ll see the VIN stamped into the chassis cross-member beam.
• Access: The carpet flap can be stiff and wants to fall closed. The area is dark under the seat, and the stamped characters can be low-contrast because they’re painted body color.
• Note: On many vehicles this is found on the right-hand front seat area (commonly the passenger side for LHD vehicles), but check the other front seat area if you don’t find it.
• Tip: Because it’s dark and low-contrast, use Flashlight + OCR—capture it with ScanVin.app instead of squinting at the stamp.

Windshield (dashboard VIN plate)

• Where to look: Stand outside the vehicle and look through the bottom corner of the windshield on the driver’s side. The VIN is on a small metal plate/tag embedded in the dashboard.
• Access: Quick to view, but often affected by glare/reflections from the sky and glass angle.
• Note: Best viewed from outside with the camera close to the glass.
• Tip: If glare makes it unreadable, use your phone to scan it instantly so you don’t have to manually transcribe through reflections.

Engine bay (firewall stamp)

• Where to look: Open the hood and inspect the firewall/bulkhead area (toward the back of the engine bay, near the center or passenger-side area on many Hyundais) for a stamped VIN.
• Access: Can be obscured by hoses, dust, or covers, and may be awkward to photograph.
• Note: This is a secondary verification point—use it if the label is missing or you need to match multiple VIN sources.
• Tip: If it’s hard to reach or partially hidden, scan it with your phone instead of writing it down in an awkward position.

Common Problems & Troubleshooting

• Under-seat stamped VIN is hard to read: The carpet flap can fight you and the stamped characters may be painted and low-contrast—use a bright light and take a close, steady photo.
• Windshield VIN glare: Reflections from the sky/clouds can wash out characters—change your viewing angle, shade the glass with your hand, and refocus the camera.
• Sticker vs. stamp mismatch: If the B‑pillar label looks tampered with, missing, or doesn’t match other VIN locations, verify using the stamped chassis VIN and run a proper VIN history check before buying.
