For life on the go, n?vi 250 packs preloaded maps for North America or Europe and millions of destinations in a sleek, stylish navigator. For more mapping options, check out the transatlantic n?vi 270 or n?vi 200 with less map coverage at a lower price. Like the rest of the n?vi 200-series, n?vi 250 is affordably priced and simple to use.

Navigate With Ease
n?vi 250 comes ready to go right out of the box with preloaded City Navigator? NT street maps, including a hefty points of interest (POIs) database with hotels, restaurants, fuel, ATMs and more. Simply touch the color screen to enter a destination, and n?vi takes you there with 2D or 3D maps and turn-by-turn voice directions. In addition, n?vi 250 accepts custom points of interest (POIs), such as school zones and safety cameras and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs.

Take It With You
Like the rest of the n?vi 200-series, n?vi 250 sports a sleek, slim design and fits comfortably in your pocket or purse. Its rechargeable lithium-ion battery makes it convenient for navigation by car or foot.

Go Beyond Navigation
Navigation is just the beginning. n?vi 250 includes many travel tools including JPEG picture viewer, world travel clock with time zones, currency converter, measurement converter, calculator and more. It also comes with Garmin Lock?, an anti-theft feature, and configurable vehicle icons that let you select car-shaped graphics to show your location on the map. Optional plug-in SD cards let you add additional features. Purchase Garmin Travel Guides for detailed data on attractions and our SaversGuide for information on nearby merchants offering discounts to customize n?vi for your travel needs.

n?vi 250: It's a whole n? way to travel.
