Available from £9.95 a month, the device connects to the vehicle’s on-board diagnostic (OBD) port, eliminating installation costs. It provides fleet managers real-time driver and vehicle information via the reporting dashboard and also has the added benefit of TRACKER’s crash detection technology, which can distinguish between bumps and kerbs and actual impacts, with reports provided on impacts via email and screen alerts, and also offers the ability to read vehicle diagnostic direct from source.

TRACKER Connect can also integrated with existing fuel card data, routing or scheduling software and is compatible for use with all modern-web browsing devices including tablets and smartphones.

David Wilson, chief operating officer at TRACKER, said: “TRACKER Connect is the latest addition to TRACKER’s suite of fleet tracking systems, which give fleet managers the information they need to drive positive change in efficiencies, cut fuel costs and reduce emissions, at a very affordable monthly price. 

“Crucially, as a plug and play device, TRACKER Connect removes the cost of installation, further reducing the cost to fleet managers, and the ease with which it can be installed means businesses can start benefiting from its fleet data and functionality immediately.

“We remain committed to delivering the best in market fleet management solutions, and TRACKER Connect is just the first of a number of new innovations set to launch this year that will boost profitability, improve customer satisfaction and support duty of care for drivers.”
