Garmin(R) Introduces nuvi(R) 7x5 Series with Lane Assist, Giving Drivers a Clear Picture of the Road Ahead

OLATHE, Kan.--(Business Wire)--
Garmin International Inc., a unit of Garmin Ltd. (NASDAQ: GRMN),
the global leader in satellite navigation, today announced the next
evolution of the nuvi 700 series, adding state-of-the-art technology
to this popular line of advanced navigators. With lane assist, the
nuvi 7x5 series provides drivers with a clear illustration of what
lies ahead on their route.

"Garmin's nuvi 7x5 series uses lane assist to make navigation
clearer and easier than ever before," said Dan Bartel, Garmin's vice
president of worldwide sales. "The lane assist view takes the
guesswork out of driving through a busy intersection or an unfamiliar
city. Drivers will no longer have to speculate which turn lane to be
in, or what lane leads to which exit - that's nuvi's job."

This new and improved series gives clear guidance on a 4.3"
touchscreen that details upcoming maneuvers and specific driving
directions, including road sign detail and arrows indicating the
proper lane for navigation. In some areas, a 3-D transparent view of
buildings appears, giving drivers a more realistic depiction of their
location. The nuvi 7x5 series also features accelerated map-drawing
and routing capabilities, and makes screen zooming even smoother than
before. For faster satellite prediction, nuvi 7x5 has Garmin's
HotFix(TM) feature which automatically calculates and stores critical
satellite information.

The nuvi 755T, 765T and 775T will come standard with a traffic
receiver that provides lifetime traffic alerts in coverage areas from
NAVTEQ Traffic. The cost of the traffic receiver is included with the
purchase of these devices - no subscription fee is required. The nuvi
765T adds Bluetooth(R) wireless technology for hands-free calling and
supports a powerful advanced audio amplifier for a stereo Bluetooth
connection. For transatlantic travel, nuvi 775T adds mapping of North
America and Europe. The nuvi 785T features an MSN Direct receiver with
trial subscription that includes updated information about traffic
conditions, fuel prices, weather reports, movie listings, headline
news, stock quotes and local events. For more information on MSN
Direct services and coverage areas, visit http://garmin.msndirect.com.
To give motorists the highest degree of awareness, this series of
advanced navigators also displays speed limits for major roadways.

In addition, each nuvi 7x5 also comes standard with the popular
"Where Am I?" feature, enabling drivers to look up their exact
location including nearest address and intersection, and the closest
hospitals, police stations and gas stations at any time. Drivers can
also associate their favorite images with saved locations using
Garmin's own unique Web site - Garmin Connect Photos - where users can
choose from millions of geo-located photos provided by Google's
Panoramio photo sharing community.

For information about pricing and availability, go to

extend for the useful life of the nuvi unit or as long as Garmin
receives traffic data from its traffic supplier.
