One of the very first NAVIGON-branded PNDs available in North America, the NAVIGON 5100 will be available for purchase this July.

Designed for consumers with active lifestyles who are overloaded with daily personal and professional responsibilities, the NAVIGON 5100 can be taken everywhere by everyone, from traveling business professionals to busy working moms. Portable and easy-to-use, the NAVIGON 5100 is housed in an attractive, chrome shell and delivers smart features that help drivers reduce stress, boost their confidence and focus on the road ahead.

"Consumers are confronted by a slew of navigation systems that look and act exactly alike; there's not a concerted effort to offer differentiated products," says NAVIGON's general manager for the Americas, Andreas Hecht. "We created the NAVIGON 5100 to provide consumers with a navigation experience that's better and different than anything else out there--at an affordable price."

Less than an inch thick, the NAVIGON 5100 is ultra-portable and features an impressive 3.5 inch easy-to-use touch screen. The NAVIGON 5100 also offers intuitive menus that predict the city, state and address as the user types, as well as easy-to-read maps views that adapt to consumers' needs, including 2D or 3D maps, and portrait or landscape mode. NAVIGON partners with NAVTEQ to deliver the comprehensive digital map information on the NAVIGON 5100.

The NAVIGON 5100 will be available for purchase online and at major North American retail outlets this July for an MSRP of $499.
