RecovR Disrupts Lot Management, Theft Recovery Market

Next-generation location solution offers car dealers the opportunity to increase lot efficiency and offer an attractive new theft recovery solution to car buyers.

Kudelski IoT announced the launch of RecovR, a two-in-one lot management and theft recovery solution that enables car dealerships to manage their lots more efficiently, improve the sales process and create a new revenue stream while providing consumers with the most advanced and reliable theft recovery solution on the market. RecovR debuted at the 2021 NADA Virtual Show and will roll out to dealerships shortly thereafter. 

For dealers, RecovR provides a substantially improved and simplified financial model compared to other theft recovery solutions currently available on the market. It is provided at no upfront cost to the dealer. RecovR also provides improved efficiencies and faster sales with its lot management features, helps prevent theft or misplaced cars, gives a potential reduction on garage keepers insurance, and provides a high-quality product that creates significant revenue at the F&I desk. 

“Most lot management and theft recovery solutions are costly, complex to install and use, and don’t take consumer privacy seriously enough.The RecovR solution has addressed all these issues by design, enabling effortless adoption by dealers while creating a disruptive new business model that generates profitability without upfront costs. Additionally, RecovR was developed by Kudelski Group, a smart parking and security technology leader, now bringing decades of security and privacy expertise to the automotive industry,” said Tanner Johnson, principal analyst for data security, vertical market applications, OMDIA. 

The RecovR locator is installed and associated with a vehicle in less than 60 seconds by placing it in a hidden location in the car and scanning the vehicle’s VIN. Because it doesn’t need to be wired into the vehicle, it doesn’t require professional installation and there is no risk of voiding the warranty as wired, battery connected solutions can. And because it is completely independent of the vehicle’s electronics system, it cannot be easily detected or disabled by thieves. RecovR is designed for ease of use by dealers, allowing them to use a powerful web portal or an individual mobile device to locate a specific vehicle in real time on or off the lot. RecovR data can also be integrated with a Dealer Management System or other software used by dealers. 

“Kudelski IoT is shaking up the market by bringing the latest technology and an innovative new business model to improve the economics of dealerships and bring them improved operational efficiency,” said Patrick Hauert, VP products for RecovR. “Not only have we created new and disruptive solution based on advanced hardware and software, but we are also offering an innovative business model that gives that to dealers at zero cost.” 

With car theft rates soaring during the pandemic, RecovR gives consumers peace of mind, financial benefits if their car is stolen, and insurance premium discounts. According to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, a car is stolen every second and theft rates are increasing significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic period. RecovR provides peace of mind for customers through its easy-to-use theft recovery app. The solution can also be used to find a vehicle when misplaced in a parking lot or can be used to get immediate alerts if a vehicle is moved unexpectedly with the ‘Location Lock’ feature. Most insurance companies provide a discount for the use of secondary theft recovery solutions as manufacturers’ integrated solutions are often easily disabled by experienced thieves. In addition, RecovR comes with a $5,000 limited warranty for the consumer if a car is stolen and not recovered and provides $1,000 towards their insurance deductible. RecovR offers 24/7 nationwide coverage and service/support.
