Understanding Your Porsche Tracking System
What Is the Porsche Vehicle Tracking System (PVTS)?
Providing peace of mind and an added layer of security, the Porsche Vehicle Tracking System (PVTS) is a type of tracking technology designed to help you protect your vehicle at all times. Available through Porsche’s online and mobile app service, Porsche Car Connect, it contains an advanced theft detection software that can alert you to things such as unauthorized movement, sabotage, and jamming.
Features and Compatibility
The Porsche Vehicle Tracking System (PVTS) comes standard on most newer models and even has support for classic models. The software also contains 24/7 support in both the US and Canada and will send you notifications via your smartphone if it detects any unauthorized activity. You can also access the system via the My Porsche app to set the desired alarm modes (e.g. transport mode).
The location of your vehicle can also be conveniently found at any time by using your smartphone, and stored route information is accessible as well. Should you need to lend your Porsche to a friend, a “geofence” function can be accessed that defines geographic boundaries that the car is not allowed to cross. If these boundaries are crossed, an alarm is sounded that alerts the owner as well as the Porsche Security Center.
How to Use
To use the Porsche Vehicle Tracking System, you will need to have access to Porsche Connect services. To activate, you’ll have to sign up using your Porsche ID. If you recently purchased your vehicle, you should have automatically received an email with activation instructions. If not, you can manually sign up through Porsche’s registration page.
Access Using the My Porsche App
You can also download the My Porsche app on your smartphone to access the Porsche Vehicle Tracking System (Porsche Connect required). The app allows for seamless integration of the alarm software and will walk you through the setup process, including setting different alarm modes and receiving notifications.
Additional benefits of the app include enhanced control of your vehicle, integration of Porsche Connect services, access to vehicle instructions and manuals, and access to exclusive promotions and offers.
When owning a Porsche, you’ll want to protect your investment at all times.
