However, buying a GPS can be difficult as the market is full of various models offering new features. More importantly, there are specific sat-navs that are better suited to specific cars. In the current market there are three types of sat-nav available. These are known as integrated based systems, plug and go systems and portable systems. Integrated based systems: This sat-nav is installed straight into the car and is designed to interact with the vehicles features. However, the main problem is that it can be expensive to install but on the positive the system will blend into your car and not be cumbersome. Plug and go systems: These sat-nav systems are a lot more affordable than than integrated GPS systems and can be used in any vehicle. The only down side to this sat-nav system is its size and it can be luring to thieves, as they can easily be taken from a car.
Portable systems: This is the cheapest sat-nav available, as well as being the most portable because you can install them straight onto your phone. The main problem with these sat-navs is the display is on your phone which can make it hard to read the maps. There could also be network charges from your service provider. Following this, you need to think about the size and visibility of the screen. The sat-nav display should always perform well in both bright conditions and shaded situations. Avoiding any situations where you could be driving your Audi and lose the ability to see your sat-nav screen. It needs to be non-reflective, bright and always easy to view. GPS coverage is also important to consider before buying your sat-nav. You need to be confident that you sat-nav won't stop service because of any mild interference. You don't want to get lost somewhere and look to see your sat-nav has no coverage and refuses to produce a way home.
Make sure you look into particular specifications and ratings of specific GPS models. Check that your system provides text and voice directions. This is important for two reasons: Firstly, it would be dangerous to stop watching the road to read your sat-nav so hearing instructions will be quicker and safer than trying to read them. Secondly, the visual directions can be very useful if you want to go over what was just said, in case you missed them the first time. During this stage it is a good idea to check your Audi manual and see if it has options for connecting to a sat-nav. What additional features are on offer? Some systems can give you information to make you aware of where traffic congestion is likely to occur and where speed cameras are located. These extra features can help you to avoid situations where you end up trapped in traffic and let you reduce your speed before you reach a speed camera. If you stick to these guidelines then whether you've had your car forever or you've just taken out a Audi leasing deal then you will easily find your destination.
