NNG and Ayana Navigation Solutions (ANS) introduced a new Personal Navigation Device especially designed for Indian roads called the ANS Navigator.

The A-501 device is a 5-inch model which runs on the iGO primo software by NNG, a global leader in the GPS navigation industry. It comes pre-loaded with India maps and a total of over 7 million Points of Interest (POIs). To guarantee continued reliable guidance, the unit comes with a 1-year map update guarantee from NNG’s update portal Naviextras.com. 

Fitted with the Integrated Quick Search (IQS) feature, the iGO primo enables every driver to begin trips with no delay. The IQS allows the driver to program his destination in just a few seconds: by entering no more than the first 3 letters of his destination, the software starts searching simultaneously across all available databases such as POIs, Favorites, Point Addressing and more.  

While driving, the Intuitive Navigation feature in iGO primo merges all available resources such as map and POI data, registered driving speed et al. It can also interpret the user’s behavior and offer fast solutions. Other key features of the ANS Navigator A-501 include   Point Addressing - for exact destination-finding, Natural Guidance – voice guidance in the common way humans instruct each other, Enhanced Junction View – realistic and high-quality images of junctions, Live Traffic – online traffic messages that warn the driver of congested road sections and   Historical Speed – considering past traffic data when calculating the best route based on the day of the week and the time of day.

Commenting on the scope of navigation devices in India, Péter Bolesza, Vice President of EEU and Emerging Markets at NNG, said “India has a diverse demography and with increased urbanization, navigation solutions have become the need of the hour.” Adding to that point Amit Sharma, Director at ANS India, said “We’re positive that the new ANS Navigator device with iGO primo brings real value to every car.”

The new ANS navigator will be available in car dealerships, retail channels & aftermarket accessory stores from October, 2013.
