10 Reasons to choose a Pioneer Sat Nav System

We all know how easy it is to make a wrong turn; or even to change your plans whilst you're driving. The good news is, that with our systems, if you do go off the planned route (whether intentionally or not), the system is quick to respond. There’s little waiting time and you immediately get access to the guidance you need.

Routing you around traffic jams is quick, too. If our system detects that there is a traffic incident en route, you're given the option of avoiding it completely. Our system will then re-route you. Again, this happens automatically and quickly.

The point is that our systems are quick to respond to your situation; because that’s exactly what you need to keep your attention on the road.

Our systems are intuitive; once installed you can pretty much start to use the system immediately; even without reading the manual (but don’t worry, a manual is included, just in case you do want to read it).

Of course, the real test is to test-drive one of our systems first; you'll see for yourself how easy they are to use, straight out of the box.

We’ve been in the sat nav business for years. In fact, back in 1990, we designed the world’s first car GPS system. Ever since then, we’ve been ahead of the game, bringing out many ‘world-firsts” in car sat nav.

This means that when you buy a Pioneer system, you can rest assured that our rich and proven heritage is included as standard.

You'll notice that people have very individual (or unique) map-reading preferences. Some people, for example, always hold a printed map pointing north, whilst others will hold a map pointing in the same direction as they’re facing.

Whatever your preference, our sat nav systems give you several alternative viewing options for the on-screen maps. This means that you receive guidance in a format that you're most comfortable with, again, giving you the freedom to keep your focus on the road.

As you'd expect, our systems guide you throughout your journey with a clear, friendly voice. Our systems will also give you instructions that make sense, and at exactly the point when you need to hear them.

Some sat nav systems out there will tell you things you don't really need to know at that particular point in time; or will possibly needlessly repeat instructions. Our systems tell you straight. And, of course, if you don’t like voice guidance, you can always switch it off.

All our screens are easy to see whilst you're driving; even if you’re in direct sunlight, or are driving in the dark. You can see what you need to without brightness interference or glare

What’s more, is that depending on the model you choose, the screens vary in sizes from 3 to 7.5 inches. Key here is that the on-screen buttons and menu items are large, and the touch screen means that you don ’t need small, delicate fingers to make your selection.

Sometimes you may not know the exact address of where you want to go. Our systems allow you to enter whatever details you may know, whether it’s just a postcode, street address or only the name of a hotel in a particular city, for example. Finding your destination couldn't be easier.

Some of our systems even provide 'phone numbers of hotels, restaurants and other points of interest, allowing you to dial-though, hands-free via Bluetooth, and make a reservation, for example. You can keep your eyes on the road at all times.

Safer driving

Our systems are designed to keep you safe on the road: large, anti-glare screens, voice control (where the system speaks to you) and voice recognition on some models (where you can give voice instructions to the system)..

Getting there is one thing, getting you there safely, is another. Our systems are designed to do both.

It's crucial that the maps included in our systems are accurate and reliable. It’s the reason we use Tele Atlas maps, with detailed coverage of 26 European countries, more than 7 million kilometers of road and literally millions of points of interest.

So, now that you know which brand of sat nav to buy; the next question is which product is right for you.

There are different options, depending on your budget and your needs. Have a look at the latest NavGate range to help you decide.
