The DRV-A700W dashcam with hardwire kit is a discreet, compact dashcam. There is no built-in display which means its small design is practically unnoticeable in your vehicle, especially during the night.
This dashcam is powered by the hardwire kit supplied. Meaning there are no messy cables and activates the Smart Parking Mode feature. Then if your vehicle is subjected to a physical impact while you're away, the dashcam will store the footage leading up to and after the incident.
Use the desktop software that will enable you to transfer the footage to browse and edit recorded video footage and share it with your insurance company and on social media. Or use the KENWOOD Dash Cam App available from the App Store (iOS) for iPhone or Google Play (Android™) for Android smartphones to view any footage.
PLEASE NOTE:- To keep size to a minimum and reduce distraction this dash cam does not have a built-in screen display. Also, the DRV-A700W dash cam requires hard wire connection (Includes CA-DR1030 hardwire kit) to the vehicles power system, providing a professional fit with no unsightly messy cables.

- CA-DR1030 Hardwire kit for permanent power and activation of smart parking mode

Brilliant dashcam!
I brought the Kenwood DRV-A700 PoBundle dashcam to replace a cheap dashcam as I wanted speed and location on the videos and for the automatic parking mode. Purchasing online from the Kenwood shop was a breeze and came in good time. The quality of the product is excellent and I fitted it myself with no issues after taking out the cheap dashcam, which I fitted. The dashcam beeps when the ignition is switched on and again when turned off! I like the ability to remove the front cam if necessary thanks to it's magnetic fitting.

Excellent Service
Love the product and all the communication from Kenwood and delivery were excellent.
