Nitro 2 CAN Immobiliser vs Track Manager S5+
With the increasing vehicle theft rates in today's society, choosing the right protection for your vehicle is crucial to protecting your valuables. When assessing the options, two systems stand out: the Nitro 2 CAN Immobiliser and the Track Manager S5+. Each has its benefits, but which one is the best choice for your needs?
Nitro 2 CAN Immobiliser Overview
The Nitro 2 CAN Immobiliser is built specifically to combat modern vehicle theft. This sophisticated immobiliser targets the CAN bus system, making the vehicle inoperable if unauthorised access is attempted. Its robust design ensures that even with advanced hacking techniques, thieves will struggle to bypass its defences. For those looking for a secure, dependable physical barrier against vehicle theft, the Nitro 2 CAN Immobiliser is a formidable choice. It works by holding a unique PIN that must be entered using the buttons inside the vehicle. Without this PIN, the vehicle refuses to start… no PIN, no start!

Track Manager S5+ Overview
On the other hand, the Track Manager S5+ is a Thatcham Insurance Approved, comprehensive tracking system offering advanced GPS tracking and alerts. It offers features like real-time tracking, geofencing and engine immobilisation allowing you to protect your vehicle from theft and locate instantly via a smartphone app. The Track Manager S5+ also has immobilisation features using driver ID tags which mean that the vehicle will not start without the tag present.
Comparing Features
- Security Layers: Both the Nitro 2 CAN Immobiliser and the Track Manager S5+ offer features that decrease the chance of your vehicle being stolen as without the unique PIN, a vehicle with a Nitro 2 CAN Immobiliser won't start and without the driver ID tag, a vehicle with an S5+ will not start. However, due to the Nitro 2 CAN Immobilisers being coded with a unique PIN it reduces the chance of stolen vehicles for example if keys are stolen or key codes are cloned. Although this is the case, the S5+ does come with GPS tracking features that allow you to see where the vehicle is at all times.
- Ease of Use: Both systems are user-friendly. The Track Manager S5+ app works with simple tag use and provides real-time updates and notifications, while using the Nitro 2 CAN Immobiliser is straightforward—once installed as it silently protects your vehicle without user intervention. Both devices come with 24/7 support from our customer service team, that can be contacted on 01622 234510 which is particularly helpful if you have a stolen or immobilised vehicle.
- Installation: Both the Nitro 2 and S5+ require professional installation to ensure the device integrates seamlessly with the vehicle's existing systems.
- Cost Efficiency: While both options represent a financial investment in your vehicle's security, the Nitro 2 CAN Immobiliser is slightly more expensive at the usual price of £429.99 compared to the S5+ at the price of £399.99. However, during the January 2025 sale you can purchase the Nitro 2 for just £399.99 which is the same price as the S5+.
