About the TomTom VIA 1625M
Big screen, big navigation value
Big screen, big navigation value
For the very best view of the road ahead, it's tough to beat a large display. TomTom's VIA 1625M portable navigator boasts a generous 6" screen, allowing you to follow its maps of the U.S., Canada, and Mexico with ease. Advanced lane guidance shows you the proper lane for the next maneuver, so you won't have to fret about missing an important turn. And you don't have to worry about future road changes affecting your travels as TomTom allows you to update the navigator's maps free of charge as long as you own it.
6" screen for convenient guidance
The VIA 1625M's big screen offers squint-free navigation from door to door. Text-to-speech technology announces actual street names at each turn. Advanced lane guidance clearly indicates the proper lane you'll need for the next turn and tracks your location until you've completed the maneuver. You'll have millions of points of interest at your disposal, so finding a nearby restaurant, hotel, or ATM should be a breeze. And TomTom's IQ Routes feature takes the average speeds of traffic along all possible routes to your destination into account, so you'll get the fastest route based on your time of day and location.
Free maps and sharing for life
You can keep your maps updated through TomTom's site for as long as you own the navigator. You can also keep up-to-date with road changes through Map Share, a feature which gives you dynamic updates like new speed limits, blocked roads, and recent detours. And if you register these changes on your device as you come across them, you can share them with other TomTom users across the country.
A robust, solid mount
TomTom's EasyPort mount lets you mount the VIA 1625M to your windshield with ease, while still giving you the best possible view. Simply turn and click the navigator's base into place, and you've got a solid foundation. Then adjust the navigator for your preferred view. When it's time to move the VIA to another vehicle, simply turn the base the opposite direction, and pop it out.
