To insert a new line in a string, try using \n where you want the line break.
Your string would look like this:

strhotspot = "VEHICLE: " & Trim(TryCast(CmbFahrname.SelectedItem, comboloadclass).ename.ToString()) & "\nDATETIME: " & Trim(TxtLastUpd.Text) & "\nLOCATION:" & location & "\nSPEED: " & e.Result(recordcount).Espeed & "\nSTATUS: " & Status
            graphic.Attributes.Add("STRHOTSPOT", strhotspot)

You're using VB. Try

 Dim strhotspot As String = ""
            strhotspot = "VEHICLE: " & Trim(TryCast(CmbFahrname.SelectedItem, comboloadclass).ename.ToString()) & VbCrLf & "DATETIME: " & Trim(TxtLastUpd.Text) & VbCrLf & "LOCATION:" & location & VbCrLf & "SPEED: " & e.Result(recordcount).Espeed & VbCrLf & "STATUS: " & Status
            graphic.Attributes.Add("STRHOTSPOT", strhotspot)
