Delete an AWS IoT FleetWise vehicle

You can use the AWS IoT FleetWise console or API to delete vehicles.

Important

After a vehicle is deleted, AWS IoT FleetWise automatically removes the vehicle from the associated fleets and campaigns. For more information, see Manage fleets in AWS IoT FleetWise and Collect AWS IoT FleetWise data with campaigns. However, the vehicle still exists as a thing or is still associated with a thing in AWS IoT Core. For instructions on deleting a thing, see Delete a thing in the AWS IoT Core Developer Guide.
