Vantrue Introduces The E1 Pro S, Bringing True 4K Recording, One-Second Startup & Extended Parking Protection To Its Compact Dash Cam Lineup

[Shenzhen, China] - October 16, 2026 - Vantrue, a global leader in automotive imaging and driving-safety technology, announces the launch of the E1 Pro S, the latest addition to its compact E-Series lineup. Combining true 4K recording, ultra-fast startup and advanced low-power parking technology, the E1 Pro S delivers a significant performance upgrade in a discreet, driver-friendly design. Equipped with an 8MP Sony STARVIS 2 sensor, fourth-generation image signal processor and Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, the E1 Pro S is engineered to capture critical details on the road while providing extended protection when parked.

The E1 Pro S brings high-resolution imaging and intelligent recording capabilities into a small form factor that stays out of the driver's view. Its Sony STARVIS 2 IMX678 sensor captures 4K (3840 × 2160) footage at 30FPS with HDR, while the next-generation dual-core processor and fourth-generation ISP improve color accuracy, highlight and shadow balance, and image clarity across challenging lighting conditions. From bright sunlight and backlit roads to tunnels and rapidly changing environments, the E1 Pro S delivers clearer footage to help preserve important details.

Further enhancing image quality, Vantrue's proprietary PlatePix™ 2.0 technology improves brightness, color and detail visibility, helping make license plates and other critical information easier to identify in demanding conditions. Combined with HDR processing and an included circular polarizing filter that reduces windshield glare and reflections, the E1 Pro S provides a more complete imaging solution for everyday driving.

One of the E1 Pro S's standout innovations is TurboBoot technology, enabling the camera to begin recording in approximately one second after power-on. This rapid startup helps capture critical moments that slower systems might miss. TurboBoot also supports parking collision detection, allowing the camera to wake from deep standby and begin recording in approximately one second following a detected impact, automatically protecting the relevant event footage.

The E1 Pro S also introduces advanced low-power parking protection, designed to provide longer-lasting monitoring while minimising energy consumption. Its low-power standby mode consumes approximately 0.4W, compared with 3.56W during buffered motion-detection pre-recording standby. With a compatible hardwire kit or dedicated parking power supply, the camera supports up to six months of low-power parking standby, waking to record when an impact is detected. Additional parking modes, including buffered motion detection, low-bitrate recording and low-frame-rate recording, provide flexible protection options for different vehicles and parking environments.

To simplify footage management, the E1 Pro S features dual-band Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, supporting download speeds of up to 30 MB/s, approximately three times faster than Wi-Fi Through the Vantrue app for iOS and Android, drivers can quickly preview, download and share high-resolution recordings without lengthy transfer times.

Additional Features

The E1 Pro S also includes a range of additional features designed to enhance convenience, reliability and everyday usability:

• 1.54-Inch IPS Display: Compact built-in screen for convenient viewing and camera operation.
• GPS + BeiDou Positioning: Dual-system satellite positioning with automatic GPS time synchronisation.
• Up to 1TB Storage: microSD card support for extensive high-resolution footage storage.
• Voice Control: Hands-free operation with support for five languages, including English.
• Supercapacitor Design: Supercapacitor-based power storage for dependable operation.
• OTA Firmware Updates: Convenient software updates to keep the camera current.
• 12V/24V Vehicle Compatibility: Suitable for a wide range of compatible passenger and commercial vehicles.

With the introduction of the E1 Pro S, Vantrue continues to expand its E-Series lineup, bringing advanced imaging technology, faster response times and more efficient parking protection to drivers seeking powerful performance without a bulky camera system. Its combination of discreet design, true 4K video quality and intelligent recording capabilities makes it a practical solution for daily commuters, frequent travelers and drivers looking to upgrade their vehicle security.

The E1 Pro S reflects Vantrue's ongoing commitment to making advanced dash cam technology more accessible, combining high-performance hardware with practical features that address real-world driving and parking needs.
