Connected V-16 beacon (Spain)

Reviewed on

In Spain, since January 1, 2026, the V-16 beacon connected to the DGT replaces warning triangles. You put it on the roof without getting out of the car.

What to look for

  1. It must be approved as a connected V-16 (geolocation sent to the DGT platform).
  2. Connectivity included for years with no fees.
  3. A firm magnetic base and batteries that are easy to check.
  4. Keep it within the driver's reach, not in the trunk.

Our picks

Tip: Check on the DGT website that the model is listed as approved before buying any beacon.
