Enhance your driving experience with our range of in-car accessories, including Sat Nav GPS, GPS trackers, Dash Cams, and more. For those vehicles that don’t come with built-in sat nav technology, using a dedicated sat nav offers both practical and safety advantages compared to relying on smartphone apps like Google Maps. Here’s a look at some of the best options available for 2023.
The Jimwey 7 Inch Sat Nav (ad) boasts GPS Navigation for cars, updated with 2023 UK and Europe maps. It promises free lifetime updates and is tailored for diverse vehicles, from trucks and lorries to motorhomes. This navigator aids with postcodes, points of interest, and speed camera alerts. Once we receive your order, our installation department will get in touch to confirm details and coordinate the installation.
Other notable mentions include the Garmin Drive 51LMT-S, a 5-inch Sat Nav that provides map updates for the UK, Ireland, and Western Europe. It also offers live traffic insights. The TomTom GO Classic stands out for its value, offering timely insights into traffic congestion with real-time updates. For those looking for the latest in route planning, Here WeGo provides advanced planning capabilities. The OHREX Sat Nav 786, another 7-inch option, comes with UK and EU Maps for 2023 and offers features like speed camera alerts, postcode guidance, and lane guidance.
When it comes to in-car systems based on navigation and connectivity with smartphones, choices range from Apple CarPlay for iPhones (compatible for 5 series and above) to Android Auto. SYNC 3 Navigation is also gaining traction as a reliable satellite navigation system that not only gets you to your destination promptly but also keeps an eye on live traffic updates.
In conclusion, while mobile phones have grown in functionality, the use of dedicated sat-navs in cars remains a smart choice. They not only help plot your route but also provide on-screen instructions complemented by voice guidance. Before you embark on your next journey, remember to set up your sat-nav to get directions seamlessly and use your mobile phone as a sat-nav in your car without distractions.
