Why is our Hawaii license plate lookup no ka 'oi?

Whether you’ve spotted a vehicle you’re interested in on the Big Island or you’re trying to sell a car on Oahu, our Hawaii license plate lookup could provide you with vital information about HI-based vehicles you’re interested in, from vehicle history to specs.
Known for its beautiful beaches that boast crystal-clear water and silky soft sands, unparalleled surf-worthy waves and a laid-back “aloha spirit,” it’s no surprise that more than 6 million visitors make their way to the Hawaiian islands every year. And that’s in addition to the 1.5 million residents who already call Hawaii home.
While it’s not the most populous state, Hawaii is compact, with most of its residents and commuters on Oahu. With that in mind, it’s no surprise that the twisting, turning roads on the Hawaiian Islands are packed full of vehicles.

Do you need front and rear license plates in Hawaii?
Yes, you need front and rear plates on your Hawaii-registered vehicle. While some states only require a rear license plate, most states still require dual plates, and that includes HI. Having your Hawiian ride outfitted with dual license plates is helpful for a few reasons. Specifically, it eases identification for law enforcement. It’s also a big help for motorists trying to spot a vehicle in case of incidents of insurance liability.
Considering buying a vehicle from another state? We can help! We have data for vehicles in all states in the USA, especially those on the Pacific coast in California, Oregon, and Washington!
According to the Federal Highway Administration’s latest update in 2024, there are approximately 1.24 million vehicles registered in Hawaii (including buses, motorcycles, and medium and heavy duty trucks that have a HI license plate).
And according to the U.S. Department of Energy’s Alternative Fuels Data Center, electric vehicle ownership is on the rise in Hawaii, with more than 12,000 EVs registered in the Aloha State as of 2024.
Although Hawaii is famous for its paradise-like beauty, picturesque beaches and the art of surfing, it’s clear that residents of Hawaii are also passionate about driving, with a ratio of nearly 80 vehicles per 100 residents!
If you already have a vehicle’s VIN (or vehicle identification number), we can also help you run a VIN search for even more detailed info on a vehicle in the state of Hawaii!
