ADD

The first three characters of every VIN are the World Manufacturer Identifier (WMI). The code ADD is assigned to Hyundai South Africa, with the country of manufacture South Africa.

So any 17-character VIN that begins with ADD was produced by Hyundai South Africa:

ADDZZZ0000000000000

The WMI only identifies the maker. To read the year, engine, plant and serial number, decode the complete 17-digit VIN with our free tool — then check which ECU it uses and what tuning services (DPF, EGR, AdBlue, DTC off, Stage) are available.
