A229 Plus 3CH Dash Cam
2K Front, 2K Rear and Infrared Cabin
The A229 Plus 3CH suits taxi and fleet use where an interior view is required alongside front and rear coverage. It uses dual Sony STARVIS 2 cameras for 2K Quad HD recording front and rear, day and night.
Dual Sony STARVIS 2 Sensors
Both the front and rear cameras use Sony STARVIS 2 IMX675 image sensors, offering 2.5× wider dynamic range and higher light sensitivity than standard STARVIS, with reduced noise and motion blur day and night.
2K Rear with Sony STARVIS 2 IMX675
The rear camera records at 2K using the Sony STARVIS 2 1/2.8" 5MP sensor. Its 2.5× wider dynamic range over same-size STARVIS pixels delivers clear, sharp footage in both daytime and night-time conditions.
Upgraded Infrared Cabin Recording
The interior camera uses a Sony STARVIS IMX307 sensor with HDR to capture the full cabin scene without overexposure. A built-in IR light sensor automatically activates 4 infrared LEDs in low light, recording sharp black-and-white detail even in complete darkness.
HDR for Front and Rear Cameras
The dual Sony STARVIS 2 IMX675 sensors, combined with HDR processing, balance bright and dark areas to preserve 2K detail in challenging lighting. Number plate details remain legible in fast-moving traffic from both front and rear.
Smart Voice Control and Notification
Voice commands let you start/stop recording, take photos, and toggle Wi-Fi in multiple languages (English, Chinese, Russian, Japanese). Audible notifications alert you to settings changes or memory card errors.
Ultra Fast 5GHz Wi-Fi
Built-in 5GHz Wi-Fi provides faster data transfer for smooth video previewing, downloading and sharing via the Viofo app.
Super Fast Video Downloads to Phone Directly
Connect directly to a smartphone via USB2.0 Type-C to Type-C cable for downloads of up to 20MB/s on iPhone 15. This connection also supports firmware updates. To enable parking mode, the Viofo HK4 hardwire cable is compatible with the A229 Plus.
Ultra-Precise GPS
The built-in Quad-Mode GPS module supports GPS, BEIDOU, GALILEO and GLONASS, improving positioning accuracy and stability. Location, speed and time data are available during playback in the Viofo app or on a computer.
Loop Recording and Auto Emergency Lock
Seamless loop recording overwrites the oldest footage automatically. The built-in G-sensor locks footage during a collision or crash to preserve the incident recording.
User-Friendly Installation
The compact interior and rear cameras offer flexible mounting positions. The interior camera mounts discreetly behind the rear-view mirror without obstructing the driver's view. The rear camera provides a wide-angle view of following traffic. A Viofo 512GB U3 A2 V30 microSD card is recommended for reliable high-speed continuous recording.

About the Viofo A229 Plus 3CH
From our tech experts at CEN
The A229 Plus 3CH adds an infrared cabin camera to the front and rear pair, so the inside of the car is recorded as clearly at 2am as it is at 2pm. All three channels use STARVIS 2 sensors, and the whole system runs from a supercapacitor rather than a battery, which keeps it reliable through a full shift in summer heat or winter frost.
Who it suits
Taxi and private hire drivers, Uber and rideshare work, and driving instructors, where what happens inside the car matters as much as the road ahead. The infrared cabin camera records faces and behaviour in the dark without lighting up the interior, which settles disputes over fares, damage and conduct. It suits any driver carrying passengers regularly, including parents with new drivers in the family.
Our tech experts advise
Three channels write a lot of footage, so start with a 256GB high-endurance microSD card rather than a standard one. Add the HK4 hardwire kit for parking mode, which matters if the car sits on a rank or on the street between shifts. If you want 4K at the front alongside the cabin camera, look at the A329S 3CH. We fit 3-channel systems at our Beeston workshop from £120, with the cabling hidden and parking mode configured before you collect the car. See dash cam installation for details.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What SD card do I need for this dash cam?
A: Use a high-endurance microSD card designed for continuous recording. Standard cards wear out quickly in dash cams. CEN stocks suitable high-endurance cards, and the maximum supported capacity is listed in the Specification tab.
Q: Does this dash cam record while the car is parked?
A: Parking mode is listed in the Specification tab. Where supported, it requires constant power from either a hardwire kit or a dedicated dash cam battery pack, both of which CEN stocks.
Q: Do I need to hardwire the dash cam?
A: Not necessarily. All dash cams work from the 12V socket for drive recording. Hardwiring hides the cabling and enables parking mode, and CEN offers professional hardwire installation from our Nottingham premises.
Q: Will the footage be accepted by my insurer or the police?
A: Dash cam footage is widely used in insurance claims and can be submitted to most UK police forces through their online portals. Recording quality matters, so check the resolution in the Specification tab.
Q: Front only or front and rear - which should I choose?
A: A front camera covers the most common claim scenarios. A two-channel system adds rear coverage for rear-end collisions and tailgating evidence, which is where many disputed claims arise. Three-channel systems add an interior view, suited to taxi and fleet use.
Q: What does the A229 Plus 3CH cabin camera record?
A: The cabin camera uses a Sony STARVIS IMX307 sensor with HDR, and four infrared LEDs switch on automatically in low light so it records black and white footage even in complete darkness.
Q: What resolution does the A229 Plus 3CH record?
A: With all three cameras running it records 2K front, 2K rear and 1080P cabin at 30fps, with other combinations available.
Q: How long are the A229 Plus 3CH camera cables?
A: The rear camera cable is 6m and the cabin camera cable is 1m.
