ONE COMPARISON. DIFFERENT COUNTRIES.

The car is abroad.
Your comparison belongs here.

Living in Romania does not limit you to Romanian cars. Choose where you will use the car, then choose each vehicle's registration country independently.

Live Dutch plate checks and Czech VIN technical checks are connected. Czech results provide technical fields only, without owner identities, claims or current-registration history. The other 22 registration countries can use reference or manual comparison; their registries are not silently substituted with Dutch records. Country of use does not calculate import tax, registration fees, insurance or exchange rates.

A

Vehicle

Decode VIN specification — NHTSA (limited EU coverage)

Works independently of registration country. Manufacturer specifications, not registration or history. Partial VIN errors remain visible. VIN is sent to NHTSA; do not submit owner details.

Search technical references (Dutch fleet)

A model reference can help compare an imported car. It does not identify that car or supply its history.

ADEME technical and consumption references — French market

Complete published ADEME table: 3,604 reference records. French-market WLTC test ranges, not registration, VIN matching or vehicle history. Select the matching specification and a published consumption bound explicitly. Model year is not supplied by this table.

ADEME source · Licence Ouverte
UK VCA technical and WLTP references

Complete latest published UK Euro6 table, not all archived cars. Model reference only; verify the exact market and version. No registration, VIN or history check.

Finnish fleet technical references — Traficom

Search bounded technical examples by make/model, independently of registration country. Up to25 fleet rows, not an exhaustive catalogue or individual vehicle check. No consumption is inferred from CO₂.

German type references — KBA HSN/TSN

Complete published FZ6 reference: 63,260 HSN/TSN combinations; snapshot 2026-01-01. Covers published vehicle and trailer types. Codes and names help check a type reference, not an individual vehicle, its exact specification or history. Counts are registered populations at the snapshot date, not valuations or current availability.

No fuel consumption, model year, condition, vehicle identity or current registration is inferred. A missing combination is not evidence that a car is invalid. All matching/filtering runs in this page after the reference loads.

Download Carfect normalized reference (gzip JSON, 575 KB). Five fields only: HSN, manufacturer, TSN, commercial name and registered population count. This is a derivative of the complete published FZ6 table, not individual vehicle data.

Swiss type-approval references — ASTRA

Complete published passenger-car snapshot: 128,489 approval records and 142 reviewed technical fields, including historical approvals. Not a Swiss plate/VIN lookup or vehicle history. Verify the exact specification; no fuel consumption is inferred. Snapshot 2026-10-29; a selected brand loads only that brand’s compressed file.

Approval dates, cancellations and expiry relate to type approval; they do not establish this vehicle’s registration or current approval validity. No owner details, VIN prefixes or free-text remarks are displayed.

EPA / DOE fuel and EV test references — U.S. market

Choose an official model-year variant. A U.S. model can differ from the European version. This source supplies test estimates, not this car’s identity or history.

NHTSA recall campaigns — U.S. model/year

For U.S.-market models and imports. Does not confirm a European vehicle’s VIN applicability, open recall or repair status.

Manual vehicle

No verified vehicle record loaded.

Editable cost scenario

Consumption and price are assumptions until you supply or explicitly apply a value. Electricity uses kWh/100 km and price/kWh; liquid fuel uses l/100 km and price/litre. Enter all costs in the selected common currency.

Your comparison

Both scenarios use the same currency and annual distance. Totals include energy plus the other monthly costs you enter, not a complete ownership-cost quote. PHEV dual-energy scenarios require separate charging and fuel assumptions; one rate does not model both.

Vehicle searches are sent to Carfect and the source provider, with bounded short-lived caching. They are not added to analytics events. Your scenario stays in this page until you export it; it is not saved to an account.

European real-world fuel benchmarks

Complete EEA 2024 reporting aggregate: manufacturer, fuel and registration year. These are fleet averages, not a consumption estimate for your specific model. Use them to stress-test a scenario. Publication: September 2026. EEA source · CC BY 4.0.

European motor-vehicle recall alerts

An alert's notifying country is not the only country in which affected vehicles may be found. Match the model and production dates, then confirm your VIN with the manufacturer. These alerts do not show an individual vehicle's repair status.

What is connected in each country?

Live means an actual source adapter was exercised. Mapped means documentation or a portal was found; it does not promise an accessible API, permission to reuse every field, or a free account. Technical references and the weekly alert window are shared across countries. No owner names, phone numbers, private claims or unrestricted VIN history are provided.
