| Garmin Nuvi 1200 Description |
The nuvi 1200 easily fits in a pocket and won't stretch your wallet either, thanks to regional mapping and its slim design. This ultra-thin GPS announces streets by name and calculates a more fuel-efficient route with ecoRoute.
Slim Down. Take It With You
Twenty-five percent slimmer than other nuvis, the 1200 and widescreen 1300-series are ideal traveling companions. nuvi 1200 easily fits in your pocket or purse, and its rechargeable lithium-ion battery makes it convenient for navigation by car or foot. Take advantage of the 1200's new Public Transit mode by downloading optional CityXplorer content for select cities to navigate via subways, trams, buses and more.
Get Turn-by-Turn Directions
nuvi 1200's intuitive interface greets you with two simple questions: "Where To?" and "View Map." Touch the color screen to easily look up addresses and services and get voice-prompted, turn-by-turn directions that speak street names to your destination. It comes preloaded with City Navigator NT street maps for the continental U.S., Hawaii and Puerto Rico or one European region or country, millions of points of interest (POIs) and 2-D or 3-D maps. Its digital elevation maps show you shaded contours at higher zoom levels, giving you a big picture of the surrounding terrain. With the 1200's enhanced user interface, you can slide your finger to conveniently scroll between screens. You can also upload custom points of interest (POIs). And with HotFix satellite prediction, nuvi calculates your position faster to get you there quicker.
Go Beyond Navigation
Navigation is just the beginning. nuvi 1200 saves you gas and money with ecoRoute - a green feature that calculates the most fuel-efficient route, tracks fuel usage and more. The 1200 includes many travel tools including JPEG picture viewer, world travel clock with time zones, currency converter, measurement converter, calculator and more. With photo navigation, you can download pictures from Garmin Connect Photos and navigate to them. With its "Where Am I?" emergency locator, you always know your location. Simply tap the screen to get your exact latitude and longitude coordinates, the nearest address and intersection, and the closest hospitals, police stations and fuel stations. The 1200 features Garmin Lock, an anti-theft feature, and is compatible with our free Garmin Garage where you can download custom custom voices and vehicles. Enhance your travel experience with optional plug-in microSD cards.
Navigate the City
With CityXplorer maps downloaded from www.garmin.com, you can explore the city using new navigable mapping. Included in the CityXplorer maps:
- Metro Rail system maps
- Suburban Rail system maps
- Bus system maps
- Tram system maps
Use them in your home town to find new, more efficient routes you never knew existed, or bring it with you on a trip and always know the best way to get to new and exciting places.

Easy shopping experience, low prices. I recently bought a Nuvi 3790 from Costco and learned of the ecoRoute HD cable. Found it cheaper here than any other site in Canada or U.S. Thanks again!
