If it doesn't have ANY online or cellular features AND the model never had them as an option, it probably doesn't have a sim card and won't track you. Sim cards cost the manufacturer money.

But if the same model as your car was available with such features and yours was just configured without them, it's entirely possible yours has a sim card too.
