The announcement of the vehicle scrappage scheme by the government of India has brought a significant change in the Indian automobile industry and is expected to generate demand for new vehicles. While buying a new car/vehicle is on a surge, buyers/owners of new cars need to take care of its security. We have shortlisted top anti-theft devices that one should have to secure his/her brand new car.
Safe Cams Dash Cams:
Installation of CCTV security cameras in your neighbourhood or society won’t be enough to protect your car from being stolen. A dash cam provides you with a security system for the vehicle. Usually, the dash cameras are used to record the on-road activity while the vehicle is on move, but when the vehicle is parked, it keeps the view of interiors as well and the installed sensors help to figure out if a car is being broken into and start recording. Safe Cams’ SC02 Dual Dash Camera with 64 GB memory would be your best option for ensuring the security of your car both on-road and in the parking lot.

There are many trackers available in the market and most of them allow for live tracking and other important features like controlling engine immobilising. LetsTrack is one of the companies that provide 24 hours real-time tracking of your vehicle.
