HOW NEW TECHNOLOGY IS PREVENTING CAR THEFT

Stealstopper 2 mins read

October 14, 2024 – Melbourne, Australia: There’s a vehicle stolen every 11 minutes in Australia. In Victoria alone, there were 19,073 cars stolen in the year to September 2023. To help counter this, industry leading MotorOne Group have taken a giant step in helping prevent car theft by introducing a revolutionary new technology-driven automotive security system aptly named Stealstopper. It’s a cutting-edge device designed to outsmart car thieves and safeguard vehicle’s like never before. 

COO Glenn Sharp: “They can steal your car keys but thanks to Stealstopper, they won’t be able to drive it away. Is it affordable? In a word, definitely!” 

Stealstopper is engineered to provide unmatched protection against theft, utilising advanced technology never been seen in Australia before ensuring your car remains secure no matter where it’s parked. Put simply, it will be where you left it when you last locked it up.

How does it work? It’s controlled via a smartphone app and can be installed at your preferred dealership or at the car owner's location of choice.

While it’s a game-changer in the realms of vehicle security, Stealstopper is universally compatible with most late model vehicles.  The MotorOne team, who are powering this initiative, are working tirelessly to expand compatibility so almost all vehicles can be protected as soon as possible.

And on the drawing boards is the opportunity to start a conversation with car insurers and the flow-on effects this could have on potential reductions in car insurance premiums where Stealstopper is installed. Particularly relevant when so many people are under financial stress with rising cost of living pressures.

Key Features:

  • Automatic Arming and Disarming: StealStopper automatically arms and disarms your vehicle so you don’t have to.
  • Advanced Encryption: Uses state-of-the-art encryption methods to protect against unauthorised drive-aways.
  • Compatibility: Enable or disable the system by a pin protected app, from either Apple or Android devices.
  • Multiple Device Linking: Connect to multiple smartphones for shared control and monitoring.

So Why Stealstopper?  First and foremost, Stealstopper is designed to prevent random car theft and in time, will be somewhat responsible for helping stop indiscriminate vehicle theft like joyriding which often results in road crash trauma and tragedy and the subject of news stories that are generating headlines every day.  And to bring this to market, our team of experts with their deep understanding of vehicle security needs have combined with latest technology to make Stealstopper available. It’s undeniably setting new standards in the war against vehicle theft.
