Garmin · Cars, RV & Cameras
The Garmin Drive™ - 8.8" GPS Navigator is built for drivers who want clear guidance on commutes and longer road trips without relying on cellular service for basic navigation. Its ultrawide HD, multi-touch display makes it easy to follow the map and make selections right where the route is shown.
With preloaded street maps plus ongoing map updates for North America, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands and Bahamas, it’s designed to stay current over time. When paired with the Garmin Drive™ app on a compatible smartphone with a cellular data connection, it can add live features such as traffic, weather and fuel prices to help keep the drive informed and efficient.
Navigation
An edge-to-edge, ultrawide HD display with multi-touch helps keep key details easy to see at a glance. The on-screen experience is designed for quick interactions, including accessing “Where to?” and other apps with a single tap and making menu or navigation selections directly on the map.
Battery
For electric vehicle planning, the navigator can search for charging stations and filter results by charging power. When paired with the Garmin Drive™ app on a compatible smartphone with a cellular data connection, it can also show live availability to support smarter stops along the route.
Connectivity
When paired with the Garmin Drive™ app on a compatible smartphone, the device can provide live traffic, real-time weather conditions, and live fuel prices. These live services require a Bluetooth®-enabled smartphone and a cellular data connection, helping add timely info while traveling.
Navigation
Garmin Drive™ - 8.8" includes preloaded street maps and ongoing map updates for North America, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands and Bahamas. Map and software updates can be handled through Wi-Fi® connectivity or by using Garmin Express™ software. For travel beyond the preloaded regions, other City Navigator® maps can be added at no additional cost using the device or Garmin Express.
Connectivity
For easier in-car operation, the navigator supports voice-activated navigation that responds to spoken requests. Routing is supported with Garmin Real Directions™ landmark guidance, lane assist with junction view, a speed limit indicator for most major roads in the U.S. and Europe, and route shaping through preferred cities/streets. Driver alerts add awareness with notifications for upcoming sharp curves, speed changes, school zones, red light and speed camera warnings and more.
Display
Paired with the Garmin Drive™ app on a compatible smartphone, smart notifications can appear on the navigator’s screen, including texts and other alerts. Built-in Bluetooth® wireless technology also supports hands-free calling when synced with a compatible smartphone. For backing up, the navigator is compatible with the BC™ 50 backup camera (sold separately) to help show obstacles behind the vehicle.
