nüvi 1250 redefines portable, affordable navigation. This ultra-thin GPS has
preloaded maps for North America or Europe, announces streets by name and
calculates a more fuel-efficient route with ecoRoute.
Slim Down. Take It With You
Twenty-five percent slimmer than other nüvis, the 1200 and widescreen
1300-series are ideal traveling companions. nüvi 1250 easily fits in your pocket
or purse, and its rechargeable lithium-ion battery makes it convenient for
navigation by car or foot. Take advantage of the 1250's new Public Transit mode
by downloading optional CityXplorer content (coming soon) for select cities to
navigate via subways, trams, buses and more.
Get Turn-by-Turn Directions
nüvi 1250's intuitive interface greets you with two simple questions: "Where
To?" and "View Map." Touch the color screen to easily look up addresses and
services and get voice-prompted, turn-by-turn directions that speak street names
to your destination. It comes preloaded with detailed City Navigator NT street
maps, nearly 6 million points of interest (POIs), 2-D or 3-D maps and the speed
limit for most major roads. Its digital elevation maps show you shaded contours
at higher zoom levels, giving you a big picture of the surrounding terrain. With
the 1250's enhanced user interface, you can slide your finger to conveniently
scroll between screens. You can also upload custom points of interest (POIs).
And with HotFix satellite prediction, nüvi calculates your position faster to
get you there quicker.
Go Beyond Navigation
Navigation is just the beginning. nüvi 1250 saves you gas and money with
ecoRoute — a green feature that calculates the most fuel-efficient route, tracks
fuel usage and more. The 1250 includes many travel tools including JPEG picture
viewer, world travel clock with time zones, currency converter, measurement
converter, calculator and more. With photo navigation, you can download pictures
from Garmin Connect Photos and navigate to them. It's also compatible with
lifetime traffic alerts or MSN Direct (receiver purchase required for either
option). With its "Where Am I?" emergency locator, you always know your
location. Simply tap the screen to get your exact latitude and longitude
coordinates, the nearest address and intersection, and the closest hospitals,
police stations and fuel stations. The 1250 features Garmin Lock, an anti-theft
feature, and is compatible with our free Garmin Garage where you can download
custom custom voices and vehicles. Enhance your travel experience with optional
plug-in microSD cards.
