nüvi 255W's widescreen display, you'll always get the big
picture. View map detail, driving directions, photos and
more in bright, brilliant color. Its sunlight-readable,
4.3-inch display is easy to read — from any direction.
Navigate With Ease
nüvi 255W 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. It even announces the name of exits and
streets so you never have to take your eyes off the road.
Simply touch the color screen to enter a destination, and
nüvi takes you there with turn-by-turn voice directions, 2-D
or 3-D maps and smooth map redraw rates as you navigate. Its
digital elevation maps show you shaded contours at higher
zoom levels, giving you a big picture of the surrounding
terrain. In addition, nüvi 255W 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.
With HotFix™ satellite prediction, nüvi calculates your
position faster to get you there quicker.
Take It With You
Like the rest of the nüvi 2x5-series, nüvi 255W 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. 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.

With photo navigation, you can download Google™ Panoramio™ pictures via our Garmin Connect™ Photos website and navigate to them. The 255W is compatible with optional enhanced MSN® Direct content (subscription and receiver required) and our free Garmin Garage where you can download animated vehicles that show your location on the map.
