Product Description
Product Description
Simple to use, the compact nüvi® 2240 has mapping for 24 countries in Western Europe and is full of features to help you navigate confidently and safely. The text to speech function speaks upcoming street names and places for extra route awareness so you can keep your eyes on the road, not on the sat nav. Lane Assist shows your correct lane choice for upcoming motorway and major route exits and junctions, avoiding stress, confusion or last-minute panic when travelling on unfamiliar or busy roads.
Localised map colours let you select your familiar paper map road colour scheme for the sat nav mapping, providing at-a-glance recognition of the routes along your journey. The nüvi® 2240 also displays speed limit data to help you drive safely and legally whilst Garmin’s unique Cyclops™ safety camera alerts provide route-relevant warnings for fixed, temporary and variable safety camera locations.
The ecoRoute™ fuel-saver feature helps you save money and fuel and reduce your carbon footprint with the option to follow the ‘less fuel’ route to your destination. It promotes fuel-efficient navigation, considering factors such as driving style, number of stops and speed limits and accurately calculates journey cost based on the price paid at the pump. The advanced routing capabilities of myTrends™ learns your driving habits to predict your destination, refining your route planning saving you time when making repeat journeys.
Product Description

Model:nüvi 2240 - EU
Very good, exception is that is describes turning left/right into this or that street by name rather than next left/right, also it describes road numbers in their full numbers e.g. A617 as 'A six hundred and seventeen' A6610 as 'A six thousand six hundred and ten', and so on, can be a bit confusing. Like the sound alerts when entering speed camera/traffic light camera zones.
As I am becoming more used to it the more I like it.
Looking forward to a European adventure with the device.

Model:nüvi 2200 - UK and Ireland
This is a perfectly decent Satnav, and we're enjoying using it. However, the Amazon description on this page says that it includes Lane Assist and Junction View, which the 2200 does not. We only found this out after we had received it and used it. We chose to pay a bit more for this model because we thought we were getting these features. So now I'm not sure what we paid the extra for, given that we could have got a 1200 for less which has a similar spec. I agree with the previous comment that it is weird that it reads out the road numbers as a whole number rather than a series of number (e.g. A one-thousand-two-hundred-and-eighty-seven instead of A one, two, eight, seven), but we'll get used to it. Overall, fine, but we're a bit annoyed the description is wrong on this page. I'm sure Amazon would refund/replace with no questions, but it's too much hassle to send it back, and we've used it a quite a bit now.

Model:nüvi 2240 - EU|Amazon Verified Purchase
I love this product! Although I have used a sat nav in the past (borrowed from a friend) I have not experienced anything as straightforward as this one. The route is really clearly marked and the "voice" is pleasant - unlike so many other voiced products I own! As many other reviewers have commented (I read the reviews before purchasing!)the street name function is brilliant - you have an instant check that you have taken the correct turning. I hope it will live up to my "excellent" score and my expectations when I take it to Ireland next month!
Only one criticism: when I missed a turning or failed to follow an instruction and "recalculating" took over I found myself in cul de sacs and all sorts! Probably my own fault for not following the instuctions in the first place!
