A closer look

Everything the Vehicle Knows, in One Device

A plug-in that reads the vehicle itself, not just its position.

No antennas, no splicing

GPS and cellular live inside the housing; the install is the port, nothing else.

Beeps confirm the install

Plug it into the diagnostic port under the dash and listen for the confirmation beeps: live before you pull out of the yard. No installer, no appointment.

Flame-retardant build

A flame-retardant ABS housing built to take the heat for years down in the port.

Crash captured like a black box

Collision detection triggers an automatic upload of detailed event data.

Room to grow, built in

Add cameras, driver ID, driver hour logs, or satellite later and the tracker you plugged in never has to come back out.

Auto-calibrating sensors

Both motion sensors set their own orientation, so a bumped or re-plugged device keeps reading true.

Trip By Trip

Every Trip on the Record, Start to Stop

Start, stop, distance, and idle time, logged automatically for every vehicle on a GO9. Any day replays on the map trip by trip, and the same record backs time-on-site questions and mileage reporting without re-keying anything.

What it does

A Small Computer That Reads the Whole Vehicle

A basic tracker tells you where the truck is. This one tells you how it was driven and what it is about to cost you.

Live location and trips

Every vehicle on one map, with trip history you can replay and verify.

Reads the vehicle, not just GPS

VIN, odometer, engine faults, and seat belt status, read straight from the vehicle - nothing keyed in by hand.

Scores the driving

Speeding, harsh braking, hard acceleration, and cornering, measured from the moment it is plugged in.

Alerts you when it matters

Zone entry and exit, speeding, and after-hours movement raise an alert the moment they happen. You act on the alert instead of watching the map.

Stays current on its own

Updates itself over the air, so the device you plugged in keeps improving without a shop visit.

Built To Disappear

Years of Service, Under the Dash

Flame-retardant electronics that plug in under the dash, installed in minutes and auto-calibrated to the vehicle.

The specifics

GO9 at a Glance

The proven workhorse

A 32-bit processor with increased memory and RAM drives high-fidelity data capture.

Plug-N-Play installation

Installs on the diagnostic port in minutes, with no wiring and no shop visit.

Deep vehicle data

It reads the engine directly, so a fault code reaches you the moment it trips.

Engine health

The Fault, Ranked Before the Breakdown

Every fault code arrives ranked by its predicted breakdown risk, and the alert carries the code, the risk, and who gets notified - so the shop plans the bay before the truck strands.

Light duty to heavy duty, one device family.

A pre-2010s truck reports the same data as the newest van in the yard.

03

Choosing Between the GO9 and the Next-Gen GO10

Choose the GO9 When

Your fleet runs older vehicles: the GO9 reads the legacy engine protocols those trucks use, so a 2008 unit reports like a new one.

Geotab Next-Gen GO10 vehicle tracking device

Choose the Next-Gen GO10 When

You run newer vehicles or cross-border routes, or want remote commands: see the Next-Gen GO10 page.

Questions

The GO9, in Plain Terms

Will the GO9 work on my vehicles?

Yes - cars, pickups, vans, box trucks, and heavy trucks, new or decades old. Almost everything plugs straight in, and if a vehicle needs an adapter it ships in the box, matched to your make, model, and year. It is the device we recommend for older vehicles.

How fast is the install?

Minutes. Plug it into the diagnostic port, listen for the confirmation beeps, and the vehicle appears on your live map. We confirm it is reporting on our end, so there is nothing left for you to check.

What happens if the vehicle is in a crash?

The GO9 detects the collision and automatically uploads detailed data for forensic reconstruction: what the vehicle was doing before, during, and after. Pair it with a GO Focus camera and you get the video to match.

Can I add cameras or driver ID later?

Yes. Cameras, driver ID, driver hour logs, temperature monitoring, and satellite all plug into the tracker you already installed, through its built-in expansion port.
