Garmin CamperVan sat nav features a bright, high-resolution 6.95-inch touchscreen display, preloaded camp site data and UK and European City Navigator maps (which are free to update), making the CamperVan the perfect partner when driving a small van sized camper van. For drivers of large motorhomes and drivers towing caravans a different caravan/motorhome sat nav in the Garmin range would make a better purchase as you can input the dimensions of your overall vehicle to avoid low bridges, narrow roads, etc. The Garmin CamperVan doesn't have the ability to input vehicle dimensions as it is aimed at camper van owners with smaller vehicles e.g. VW Campervan (small van size).

The Carmin CamperVan is packed with several databases aimed specifically at motorists out to explore the very best places to eat and stay with their camper van in the UK and mainland Europe. The CamperVan features the following data:

Campsite directories - easily find a place to stop for the night with the CamperVans preloaded directory of camper van campsites and stopovers from ACSI, Campercontact, iOverlander and Trailer’s PARK.

The Michelin Green Guide - This preloaded guide features pictures, detailed descriptions and ratings, so you know if the attraction is worth a visit.

TripAdvisor - Curious what other travellers have to say? View Tripadvisor traveller ratings for restaurants and attractions along your route or near your destination.

Trendy places content - Trendy Places content pinpoints the best stops along your route, so you can skip the planning and researching to spend even more time exploring.

Local spots content - See nearby places to visit and exciting activities to try. Take the recommendations, or save them for another day. It’s up to you.

BirdsEye Satellite Imagery - A clear view from above helps you find the hidden paths to secret, remote locations. Get direct-to-device downloads via WiFi wireless technology, no subscription required.

The Garmin CamperVan features a built-in voice assistant. To activate the Voice Assistant, Just say ″OK Garmin″ the CamperVan sat na vthen responds to your spoken requests then navigates wherever you need to go.

In addition when you pair the Garmin CamperVan with the Garmin Drive app on your compatible smartphone, live traffic helps you avoid delays and find detours. Also view live fuel prices, detailed weather forecasts, current conditions, animated radar and more. Live traffic services can also be acheived when purchasing the Garmin GTM 36 FM Traffic Receiver. The Garmin GTM 36 replaces the supplied vehicle power cable to provide power/charge and also traffic information without subscription and without the need of a smartphone. The GTM 36 (pictured right) uses the FM signal to provide traffic updates directly to the Garmin CamperVan.

To update the Garmin CamperVan preloaded City Navigator Europe maps, BirdsEye satellite imagery maps, software etc, built-in WiFi connectivity makes it easy to update without using a computer. On-screen cues also show you when new updates are available.
