A Volkswagen window sticker (Monroney label) is the factory-required label listing that car's MSRP, standard and optional equipment, EPA fuel economy and NHTSA safety ratings — ForCar has it rebuilt for 34 Volkswagen models, averaging 30 mpg on the label. Enter any Volkswagen VIN and it comes back with that exact build — free.
What's on a Volkswagen window sticker
Every Monroney label carries the same required blocks — MSRP with itemised options, EPA fuel economy, which across the Volkswagen range averages 30 mpg, NHTSA safety ratings, where 93% of rated Volkswagen models hold five stars overall, standard and optional equipment, and parts-content origin. Enter a Volkswagen VIN and the label comes back with that car's own build, not a range average.
Across the 19 Volkswagen models with EPA data on file the label figure spreads from the Jetta at 44 mpg down to the Tiguan Limited at 23 — which is why the sticker for one car says more than any brand average. What those stickers are worth today: a median $8,095 across 19 models and 3,591 live listings, topped by the Atlas at $22,592. From EPA fuel-economy records, NHTSA ratings and ForCar market data.
For how to read each block, what to do if the sticker is lost and how it differs from a build sheet, see the window sticker guide.

EPA figures across the Volkswagen range
Combined MPG as printed on each model's window sticker, most efficient first. The Volkswagen range spans 21 mpg between the Jetta and the Tiguan Limited, so a brand average tells you little — the label for one VIN tells you everything:
Figures are the best recent EPA rating for each model; electric models are rated in MPGe and left out so the comparison stays like-for-like.
What Volkswagen stickers are worth now
The label freezes the factory price; this is the median asking price of each Volkswagen model on the used market today, across 3,591 live listings:
Medians across all model years we hold prices for, so a long-running nameplate sits lower than a recent one. Full year-by-year breakdown on each model's Volkswagen value pages.
Safety ratings across Volkswagen stickers
The NHTSA block on each label, model by model. Overall stars out of five, best first — a quick way to see how consistently Volkswagen builds to the crash test:
NHTSA has crash-tested 14 of the Volkswagen models on file, which is why this list is shorter than the full range — 13 of them hold five stars overall. Stars shown are the overall rating; each model's page breaks out frontal, side and rollover.

Where to find the VIN on a Volkswagen
- WindshieldLower-left corner, driver's side, readable from outside without opening anything.
- Door jambOn the driver's door frame, next to the tyre-pressure and build-date plate.
- DocumentsRegistration, title and insurance card — on a Volkswagen all three must show the same number.
All four must match. A Volkswagen whose windshield plate disagrees with the door jamb has either had a panel replaced or a tampered identity — check the paperwork before any money changes hands.
Window sticker — frequently asked
What MPG do Volkswagen window stickers show?
Across 19 Volkswagen models with EPA data the combined figure averages 30 mpg, ranging from the Jetta at 44 mpg down to the Tiguan Limited at 23. The label prints the figure for that exact build, which is why two Volkswagen cars of the same year can show different numbers.
How safe are Volkswagen models on the sticker?
13 of 14 rated Volkswagen models (93%) hold five stars overall from NHTSA — that block is printed on every Monroney label. Where Volkswagen sits against every other marque is in the safest cars data.
What are Volkswagen models worth compared with their sticker price?
The label freezes the factory price. On today's market the median Volkswagen asks $8,095 across 19 models and 3,591 live listings, from the Atlas at $22,592 down to the Rabbit at $3,398.
Is the recreated Volkswagen sticker the same as the original?
It rebuilds the factory equipment, EPA fuel economy and NHTSA safety from official records, so the core Monroney content matches. Dealer-added options and destination charges vary by sale, so the printed total on one Volkswagen may differ from another.
Where do I find the VIN on a Volkswagen?
Lower-left of the windshield, the driver's door-jamb sticker, or the registration and insurance documents — all three must agree. For what a window sticker is, how to read each block and what to do if yours is lost, see the window sticker guide.
