Countries covered: Brazil

The Brazilian government initially called for tracking systems and immobilisers to be introduced on all new vehicles from 2009. A six-month trial period started in August 2009 and the mandatory fitment of tracking systems was expected to commence in February 2010.

However, a new legal challenge has been made which may further delay the implementation timing or change the requirements.

In response to the recent developments, SBD has produced an updated report which details the technical requirements for OE tracking systems, the approval processes and the future outlook for the stolen vehicle tracking market and the opportunities this provides for the fitment of added value telematics services.
