Nowadays, security of personal vehicle has become a crucial part of modern life. The number of stolen car cases has increased annually. Therefore, the development of vehicle tracking system using GPS and GSM project is performed with the aim to help the users to manage over their vehicle better. To solve such problems, the project will be conducted to have such capability that can track vehicle remotely from a distance by using mobile network. The execution of the project will be concerning the study of ublox NEO-6Q GPS receiver, ublox LEON G100 GSM module and Arduino Uno rev3 Microcontroller. In detail, the system will utilize the Global positioning system to obtain the vehicle coordinate and transfer it to user’s phone by Global System for Mobile. During the process of development of the project, the outcome has been proven to be positive such as finishing the circuit design of the project, testing the chips and obtaining the coordinate from the chip. In the end, the project was partially successful in such a way that it proves the feasibility of the project.
