The compact nvi 2250 speaks street names and includes maps for the U.S., Canada and Mexico. It also features lane assist and myTrends™ which recognizes your favorite routes, plus ecoRoute™ to help calculate a more fuel-efficient route. Pedestrian capabilities can be enhanced with optional cityXplorer™ maps for mass transit information.

Experience nRoute™ Technology with myTrends

With myTrends, nvi 2250 recognizes your favorite destinations and over time predicts where you?re going and provides estimated travel time. So whether you?re driving to and from work or a regularly scheduled weekly event, your 2250 will help you get there on time. No subscription or added cost required.

Know the Lane Before It?s Too Late

No more guessing which lane you need to be in to make an upcoming turn. Lane Assist guides you to the correct lane for an approaching turn or exit, making unfamiliar intersections and exits easy to navigate.

Select Fuel-efficient Routes

nvi 2250 saves you gas and money with ecoRoute ? a green feature that calculates the most fuel-efficient route, tracks fuel usage and more. With ecoRoute, you have a ?less fuel? option as a routing preference. When selected, nvi will determine if a more fuel efficient route exists based upon road speed data and vehicle acceleration data for a given route.

Navigate City Transit

With its enhanced pedestrian navigation capabilities, nvi 2250 is the perfect travel companion for getting around town. Download optional cityXplorer content to help you navigate city public transit. Know where to walk, where to catch the bus, subway, tram or other transportation and how long it will take to get there. cityXplorer maps are available for select cities throughout North America and Europe. And with prices as low as $9.99, you'll have money left over to spend in the big city.

Get Turn-by-Turn Directions

nvi 2250 has an intuitive interface that 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 City Navigator® NT street maps for the U.S, Canada and Mexico, millions of points of interest (POIs) and speed limits for most major roads in the U.S. and Europe. Its digital elevation maps show you shaded contours at higher zoom levels, giving you a big picture of the surrounding terrain. With the 2250's enhanced user interface, you can slide your finger to conveniently scroll between screens. You also can upload custom points of interest (POIs). And with HotFix® satellite prediction, nvi calculates your position faster to get you there quicker.

Go Beyond Navigation

The 2250 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 (receiver purchase required). 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 2250 features Garmin Lock™, an anti-theft feature, and is compatible with our free Garmin Garage™ where you can download custom custom voices and vehicles.
