The Motive Engine Immobilizer helps organizations prevent vehicle theft by letting fleet managers remotely control and disable a vehicle’s starter circuit from the Motive Dashboard. Fully integrated with the Motive Platform, Engine Immobilizer allows teams to take action in response to suspected theft, unauthorized use, or other emergencies. Built for vehicle environments and tightly connected to real-time fleet data, Motive Engine Immobilizer provides centralized control and visibility that help improve security, reduce theft risk, and support safer fleet operations.
Key features
- Remote Vehicle Immobilization: Enables fleet managers to prevent engine starts and restarts directly from Fleet View in the Motive Dashboard, supporting fast response to unauthorized or suspicious vehicle use.
- Theft and Misuse Prevention: Deters vehicle theft and unauthorized use by immobilizing the engine and ignition system, helping protect high-value cargo, and minimizing liability concerns.
- Fleet Management Integration: Integrates with Motive’s Fleet Management platform and Vehicle Gateway, tying immobilization decisions to real-time vehicle location, status, and alerts for informed decision-making.
- Reliable LTE/2G Connectivity: Connects independently to cellular networks with LTE/2G fallback so immobilize and mobilize commands can be delivered even in areas with limited coverage.
- Secure Starter Circuit Interruption: Uses a relay-based design to reliably interrupt the starter line, preventing engine starts without causing abrupt vehicle stops.
- Dashboard Control and Visibility: Allows admins to assign Engine Immobilizers to specific vehicles, view device status, and manage immobilization centrally in the Motive Dashboard, providing clear visibility into protected assets.
- Configurable Security Policies: Supports fleet-specific security strategies by allowing teams to define when and where immobilization is appropriate, such as off‑hours, high‑theft regions, or following panic events.
- Installation Kit: Delivers a user-friendly installation kit including harness, relays, and sockets, designed for automotive environments with clear installation steps.
