Garmin
nuvi 1250 & 1250T
The
Garmin nuvi 1250 redefines portable, affordable
navigation. This ultra-thin GPS has preloaded maps
for North America, announces streets by name, and calculates
a more fuel-efficient route with ecoRoute.
Slim Down. Take It With You
25%
slimmer than other nuvi portable car GPS systems, the 1250 and 1260T are
ideal traveling companions. The Garmin nuvi 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 for select cities to navigate via subways, trams,
buses and more.
Get
Turn-by-Turn Directions
The
Garmin nuvi 1250's intuitive interface greets you with
two simple questions: "Where To?" and "View Map." Touch
the colour 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 North America 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 (DEM) 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, nuvi calculates your position faster to get
you there quicker.
Go
Beyond Navigation
Navigation
is just the beginning. The Garmin nuvi 1250 saves you
gas and money with ecoRoute — a
green feature that calculates the most fuel-efficient
route, tracks fuel usage and more. The Garmin nuvi
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 nuvi 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.
