Security, especially theft security of vehicle in common parking places has become a matter of concern. An efficient automotive security system is implemented for anti-theft using an embedded system integrated with Global Positioning System (GPS) and Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM).This proposed work is an attempt to design and develop a smart anti-theft system that uses GPS and GSM system to prevent theft and to determine the exact location of vehicle. GSM system is also installed in the vehicle for sending the information to the owner of the vehicle because GPS system can only receive the vehicle location information from satellites. The preventive measures like engine ignition cut-off, fuel supply cut of are installed in the vehicle which is controlled using user or owner’s GSM mobile. The owner can lock or unlock his/her vehicle with the help of SMS. This complete system is designed taking into consideration the low range vehicles to provide them extreme security
