The VL501 is a plug-and-play tracker with GNSS, LTE, and Bluetooth connectivity. With a cigar lighter power connector, it is easy to install on virtually any vehicle. It is an ideal choice for individuals as well as fleet managers who would like to track their vehicles in applications such as courier delivery, car rental and leasing, insurance telematics (UBI), and more. The considerate design of the USB-A and Type-C ports make the charge of other devices like cellphone much more convenient; while the OTA makes firmware upgrade easier.
