TomTom GO
1692 TomTom has completely redesigned its portable navigation device (PND) to introduce the new TomTom Go.

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.

  • Satellite navigation 'has made drivers lazy'
    October 30, 2014
    A majority of UK drivers have no idea of how to read a map and are likely to find themselves hopelessly lost without their satellite navigation (satnav) system.
