An interactive map enables drivers to easily access the travel information they need via a high-resolution, capacitive touch- screen. The 3D maps bring buildings and landmarks to life to give drivers a view of precisely what is going on around them, as well as what lies ahead.

The new TomTom Go series comes with lifetime TomTom traffic: traffic information that pinpoints exactly where delays start and end. Additional features include route bar, providing essential travel information at a glance; quick search; my places or favourite locations; lifetime maps; and speed camera alerts.

Drivers can connect to TomTom traffic via Smartphone Connected or Always Connected.
