Today, we see a lot of GPS devices offer the tactical maneuvering for easier routes and better fuel consumption. However, with the NAVIGON 4300T max and 3300 max units pack NAVIGON MyRoutes(TM), aim to deliver personalized route recommendations based on individual driving habits.

As an industry-first, the NAVIGON 4300T max and 3300 max both include the new intelligent NAVIGON MyRoutes(TM) feature that takes individualized navigation to a new level and allows a unique way of personal route planning.

The feature provides up to three route choices with distance and ETA calculated for all entered destinations, factoring in speed limits, construction and traffic as you’re driving. All routes are clearly displayed on a map with ETA and driving time giving the driver a choice. The system continuously saves the driver’s individual driving data in order to provide the best individual route possible and recommends a route based on the user’s driving habits, the day of week and time of travel.

NAVIGON offers a variety of additional content and upgrades for both devices. NAVIGON’s optional FreshMaps accessory provides up to 8 map updates over two years for $79.99 (MSRP). If the user activates FreshMaps within 30 days after purchasing the device, the price is only $39.99. Zagat(R) Ratings and Reviews showing where to wine, dine, and unwind are available as an upgrade for $19.99 (MSRP). The NAVIGON 3300 max is also compatible with NAVIGON’s new Real-Time Spoken Traffic Updates and Rand McNally Scenic Routes accessories, with respective prices of $99.99 and $19.99 (MSRP).

The NAVIGON 4300T max features include:

  • Free Real-Time Spoken Traffic Updates

  • Bluetooth(R) Hands-Free
  • Reality View(TM) Pro
