That’s because they’re purchasing electric, hybrid, and CNG vehicles to reduce their carbon footprint and to improve fuel efficiency. This is great for the environment and saving costs in the long term. <\/p>\n
However, when you start looking for GPS tracking for alternative vehicles there are some important things you need to know.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_blurb title=”Tracking a regular vehicle is different than tracking an alternative vehicle” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||divi||400″ icon_placement=”left” image_icon_width=”24″ admin_label=”Tracking a regular vehicle is different than tracking an alternative vehicle” _builder_version=”4.16″ header_text_color=”#15234c” header_font_size=”20″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_margin=”||0px|0px” custom_padding=”||0px|0px” animation=”left” custom_css_blurb_content=”max-width: 100% !important;” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” icon_font_size=”24″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb title=”Most GPS tracking providers do not provide accurate data for alternative vehicles” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||divi||400″ icon_placement=”left” image_icon_width=”24″ admin_label=”Most GPS tracking providers do not provide accurate data for alternative vehicles” _builder_version=”4.16″ header_text_color=”#15234c” header_font_size=”20″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_margin=”||0px|0px” custom_padding=”||0px|0px” animation=”left” custom_css_blurb_content=”max-width: 100% !important;” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” icon_font_size=”24″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb title=”Do your research to make sure that the provider you go with understands how to provide reliable GPS tracking for alternative vehicles” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||divi||400″ icon_placement=”left” image_icon_width=”24″ admin_label=”Do your research to make sure that the provider you go with understands how to provide reliable GPS tracking for alternative vehicles” _builder_version=”4.16″ header_text_color=”#15234c” header_font_size=”20″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_margin=”||0px|0px” custom_padding=”||0px|0px” animation=”left” custom_css_blurb_content=”max-width: 100% !important;” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” icon_font_size=”24″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_text admin_label=”Blog Body” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_margin=”30px|||” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” global_colors_info=”{}”]Although most GPS tracking providers claim they offer alternative fuel vehicle tracking<\/a>, just like any other type of vehicle, the data they are receiving and analyzing is not accurate. Few companies have taken the appropriate measures to ensure quality data is gathered for alternative vehicles.<\/p>\n As experts in device management, we have introduced logic that allows us to successfully accommodate the multitude of voltage variables present on the ECM\/ECU in alternative vehicles.\u00a0This allows GPS Insight to record a vehicle\u2019s true trip activity as opposed to struggling to accurately capture ignition status change events.<\/p>\n Since alternative vehicle engines shut off when stopped — at a red light, for example — most data would show that the driver shut the vehicle off in the middle of the road, when in reality that isn\u2019t true. With this GPS device formatting, fleet managers get accurate alternative fuel vehicle tracking. That includes stop\/ignition status data from the devices tracking these alternative vehicles to include hybrids, all-electric cars, and natural gas vehicles.<\/p>\n GPS INSIGHT IS ONE OF THE ONLY PROVIDERS TO OFFER RELIABLE GPS TRACKING<\/span> FOR ALTERNATIVE VEHICLES.<\/strong><\/em>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" GPS Insight is one of the\u00a0only providers\u00a0to offer reliable alternative fuel vehicle tracking.

\nThe company\u2019s data would show that it was indeed stopped, but that the trip was still in progress and the vehicle was stopped at a red light. GPS Insight also can provide accurate data for when the ignition is truly off.<\/p>\n![\"Unique](\"\/\/www.gpsinsight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Unique-GPS-Tracking-Series3.jpg\"){kind=tracking}
