Manufacturer Description

Take advantage of this bundle package which includes Garmin nuMap Lifetime Map update to guarantee you will always have the latest mapping on your navigator!

The ultra-thin nuvi 1300 has a widescreen display, yet it's slim and light enough to take along on all your travels. This affordable GPS comes with regional mapping, 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 nuvis, the 1200 and 1300-series are ideal traveling companions. nuvi 1300 easily fits in your pocket or purse, and its rechargeable lithium-ion battery makes it convenient for navigation by car or foot.

Get Turn-by-Turn Directions
nuvi 1300'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 City Navigator® NT street maps for the continental U.S., Hawaii and Puerto Rico or one European region or country (click versions tab to view all), millions of points of interest (POIs), and 2-D or 3-D maps. Its digital elevation maps show you shaded contours at higher zoom levels, giving you a big picture of the surrounding terrain. With the 1300'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. nuvi 1300 saves you gas and money with ecoRoute - a green feature that calculates the most fuel-efficient route, tracks fuel usage and more. The 1300 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 1300 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.
