Maruti Udyog is set to introduce the immobilizer system across all its models to add security to its products. Though immobiliser is more common in western cars for the sake of cost in Indian immobiliser fails to find a place for a long time. Losing of cars increased proportionally to the increase in car population also stolen vehicle recovery ratio is very low in India<\/st1:place><\/st1:country-region>. Hence security system is necessary for Indian cars though there is no regulation for making it mandatory.<\/span><\/o:p><\/p>\n

How the system works<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/o:p><\/p>\n

The device, called iCATs (intelligent Computerised Anti-Theft system) works on the principle of multiplexed communication. Under this system, a transponder – inbuilt into the car key – carries a unique electronic identification and a secret code that digitally communicates with the engine computer via a controller. If the secret code matches, the engine starts and in case of a mismatch, the electronic circuitry does not let the car to start, thereby preventing the car from being stolen. <\/span><\/o:p><\/p>\n

impact on price<\/span>..<\/strong><\/em><\/o:p><\/p>\n

The new device will increase the cost of all Maruti cars that drive out in the next few weeks and the company plans to pass on the hike to the prospective buyers and the hike will be in few thousands<\/span>.<\/o:p><\/p>\n

Security system in other Indian Cars<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/o:p><\/p>\n

While Ford\u2019s Ikon, all models of Toyota except the e grade cars, Hondas Civic and CR-V already have immobilizer fitted into it, the other anti-theft device called the keyless entry is present in Honda City and Accord and is optional in Toyota vehicles or the remote-centre locking as is present in Hyundai\u2019s Verna, Sonata and Elantra. <\/span><\/o:p><\/p>\n

But beware ‘no system is foolproof’ and park your car in safer place.<\/o:p><\/p>\n
