The key features of the new TomTom Mazda5 solution include:
- LIVE Services ? the HD Traffic? navigation system combines the world's most accurate traffic information with dynamic route guidance technology. It is the most accurate as it covers more road kilometres on both secondary and main roads. It reports traffic jams with higher accuracy and also refreshed more frequently than any other service, with updates every two minutes. Drivers can stay ahead with up-to-date speed camera information on both fixed and mobile cameras en route, as well as live weather updates and local search which is sent directly to the SIM card of your in-dash system.
- Updatability ? the navigation solution can be regularly updated. This means anything from maps, to new software to voices can be downloaded to the device via TomTom HOME.
- Full infotainment solution ? the complete system solution supports features like hands-free dialing via Bluetooth, MP3 playback from USB or iPod, control by speech and rear-view camera viewing.
