TomTom company continues the uphill fight to maintain financial stability in the PND market with the launch of the TomTom XL LIVE Europe GPS navigator today. The company has obviously realized it needs to offer high-end features on entry-level and mid-range devices this year in order to (hopefully) bump up sales. And that’s what is happening here.
The XL LIVE Europe GPS finally takes connected services and HD Traffic across the entire European continent rather than confining it to the UK. Smart move on TomTom’s part here because Europe is TomTom’s strongest market. Other than that the XL LIVE features a 4.3-inch widescreen display and most of the features of previously released ONE IQ Routes PND.
HD Traffic and other connected services will add ?7.99 per month onto the purchase price of ?249.99, but you’ll get the first three months free. You’ll also have access to Google Search, local gas prices, weather reports and speed camera alerts.
Look for the TomTom XL LIVE Europe PND to launch across Europe next month.
