What are the differences between the vehicle tracking categories?
Vehicle Accessories supplies a variety of auto tracking technology that is Thatcham approved. However, you may have been aware that each tracker comes with its own category; 5, 6 and 7. So what are the differences between these classifications?
Thatcham Category 5
This is the highest award given to a tracking device and is only given once it provides the highest level in security and recoverability. For a tracker to qualify it must have; remote immobilisation, a high level of police response, a security agreement, driver ID, motion sensors, street mapping and data position reporting.
Category 5 trackers are really popular amongst high value and high powered vehicles; however they can be fitted to any vehicle and are great for those who want the highest security for added reassurance.
Our range of category 5 includes:
Thatcham Category 6
Thatcham category 6 carries many of the specifications of the category 5 – including position and street mapping. Some category 6 devices come with optional driver ID and or security agreements, however, category 6 does not come with an immobiliser or level 1 police reply.
All of Vehicle Accessories category 6 trackers still provide excellent security and peace of mind. The technology will allow you to track the vehicle from all over the UK and Europe.
Our range of Category 6 includes:
- Smartrack Motorcycle Category 6

Thatcham Category 7
Thatcham accredited category 7 trackers provide an excellent level of security and tracking ability, however, do not meet the full specification as the higher levels of 5 and 6. The trackers still have an excellent selection of features that you would find on advanced models and are a cost-effective option for drivers on a budget.
Our range of Category 7 includes:
