TeleNav Shotgun with INRIX Real-time Traffic

INRIX and TeleNav are working together to bring you the most up to the minute traffic information you can get.

The TeleNav Shotgun is an Internet-connected GPS personal navigation unit with two-way communication. The Shotgun provides turn-by-turn navigation with spoken street names and is pre-loaded with all of the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico. Thanks to the INRIX information the Shotgun also has traffic alerts and real time rerouting when adverse traffic situations arise.

With the Internet connectivity you can even preplan your route, download automatic map updates and new features as they become available. The unit even helps you find the cheapest gas and regularly updates the prices.

The TeleNav Connected Service uses INRIX to monitor the conditions of traffic along the user’s route. With the constantly updated information the unit will alert the driver with both audible and visual cues. One touch gives you an alternative route so that you won’t have to miss those important appointments. And if you’re going to be late you’ll know exactly how late since the Shotgun and INRIX will give you a new estimated time of arrival on the fly.

INRIX is also supplying this information to the TeleNav GPS Navigator, a mobile phone-based navigation service, which is available through several major wireless carriers in the U.S. So even if you don’t have the TeleNav Shotgun you can benefit from the service depending on which carrier you have.

The TeleNav Shotgun is available in select electronics retailers and online for a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $299 and comes with 3 months Free TeleNav Connected Service.
