Real Model Number to abbreviated Model Number

According to the website, the model number of a laptop I'm investigating for purchase is:

V5-571-53314G50Makk
http://www.acer.co.uk/ac/en/GB/content/model-datasheet/NX.M3QEK.002

However, according to Acer's own website, and numerous other sites which help to identify Acer laptop models, no such model exists - they all insist that the model number must be something like "Aspire 5123"

Is the "V5-571-53314G50Makk" an "Aspire 5715", an "Aspire 5571", or perhaps an "Aspire 3314"? And is there a general rule to translate the (real?) model number to the (abbreviated?) model number?

(There is no "5571", "5715Z" was the closest match I could find... but there are no "Z"s in the model number.)
