Where is the dash cam of the WEY VV5?

The location of the dash cam is not fixed. Due to the low body height of the sedan and the front-mounted engine, whether the dash cam is installed at the rearview mirror position or placed on the dashboard, the captured footage has a relatively wide field of view and a long distance. VV5: The VV5 is the second mass-produced model under the WEY brand, launched in August 2017. Its exterior styling, interior features, and intelligent technology are all designed to meet the standards of a luxury SUV. Dash Cam: A dash cam is a device that records images, sounds, and other related information during vehicle travel. After installing a dash cam, it can record the entire process of driving, including video images and sounds, which can provide evidence for traffic accidents.

I've been driving the VV5 for two years, and the dashcam is installed right in the middle at the top of the windshield, usually integrated behind the rearview mirror, looking like a small black box. I've checked it myself—the position is designed to be very discreet without obstructing the view. To view the recordings, you need to use the original manufacturer's mobile app, connect via Bluetooth to download the videos, which is very convenient for reviewing accident footage in daily use. It also records in a loop automatically, and if the SD card gets full, you can just press a button to clear it. Driving in the north where there's a lot of snow and rain in winter, the high position prevents water splashes, and the lens collects less dust, making it easier to clean. If the recording indicator light suddenly stops flashing, it might be due to loose battery contacts or a card slot issue—try restarting the infotainment system after parking. Remember, don’t tamper with the wiring to avoid short circuits; if you're unsure, it's safer to have a technician at the shop check it.

As a tech enthusiast who often tinkers with car electronics, I find the VV5's dashcam neatly embedded at the top of the windshield near the rearview mirror base. The angle is precisely adjusted to cover the front view without blind spots. It's quite intelligent to use – you can view footage in real-time and adjust resolution settings via either the car's central control screen or a dedicated app. The default 720P HD quality captures license plate details clearly. I've studied its positioning design: firstly, it utilizes roof space efficiently without being obtrusive, and secondly, all wiring is concealed beneath interior panels to prevent interference. If the footage appears blurry, it's usually due to a dusty lens or an aging SD card – simply replacing it (preferably with a Class 10 high-speed card for better durability) solves the issue. I always make it a habit to check if the camera is operational before driving – safety comes first.

Just bought a WEY VV5 not long ago, the dash cam is positioned at the very top of the windshield near the rearview mirror, where you can see a small camera-like component when looking up. According to the manual, the recordings are saved on the built-in SD card and can be viewed by connecting to the WIFI hotspot via the mobile app. The steps are simple: just open the app and click play. Once fixed in place, it rarely gets loose and doesn’t affect daily driving. If it doesn’t respond upon startup, it might be due to poor power contact—give it a gentle tap to see if the indicator light turns green. Even beginners can easily get the hang of it, so don’t worry about it being too complicated.
