A power-saving position tracking device includes a central processing unit; a short-distance wireless communication unit, for establishing a wireless connection with a short-distance wireless transceiver to perform a position tracking; a GPS receiving unit, for receiving a satellite signal for performing a position tracking and outputting position information; a mobile communication unit, for transmitting the position information to a remote control center. If a signal intensity of a wireless connection between the power-saving position tracking device and the short-distance wireless transceiver is greater than a threshold, the GPS receiving unit and the mobile communication unit will enter into a power saving mode; on the other hand, if the wireless connection signal intensity is smaller than the threshold, the short-distance wireless communication unit will enter into the power saving mode to achieve the power-saving effect.
