Magellan Navi - Now available in 2017 Subaru Model Vehicles
The Magellan Navi navigation app brings powerful GPS satellite navigation features, the latest maps, and routing accuracy to vehicles by seamlessly connecting the smartphone app to a vehicle's infotainment display. Navi connects to the car's head-unit display via Bluetooth or USB to deliver a voice-guided, full-navigation experience with lane guidance, millions of Points of Interest (POI), and more. A simplified, easy-to-use interface is designed to promote distraction-free driving. The app is now featured in select 2017 Subaru models, including the Impreza and BRZ, via the Subaru STARLINK™ multimedia system.

Magellan's award-winning line of MiVue DashCams deliver superior image quality, upgradeable microSD storage, and enhanced low light performance. There is a model to meet the needs of every user, whether it's recording traffic accidents, capturing scenic spots along the way, or keeping track of a novice teen driver.

Off-Road Navigators – The most complete navigation solution for Off-roaders
Go off the grid and stay on track with Magellan's TRX7 Series Off-Road GPS Navigators, the most complete off-road navigation solution on the market today. Featuring a 7-inch HD touchscreen, ruggedized hardware casing and mounting systems designed specifically for 4x4, UTV/SxS and ATV vehicles, off-roaders can safely navigate their way through 82,000 designated OHV trails from a hi-res 3D basemap view, while connecting their smartphones to track and share trails in a database of crowd-sourced tracks.

All-in-One & Personal Navigators – Full-featured GPS navigators, now with integrated dash Cameras.
Magellan's venerable RoadMate series of personal navigation devices include all-new models for 2017, including a combo device with a high-quality dash camera built in, delivering the best of both worlds to consumers looking to gear up their vehicles for around-town driving or longer road-trips.

Professional Fleet Management Solutions – Smart solutions for professional fleets and municipalities
Magellan's Fleet applications give professional fleet managers everything they need to manage and organize driver routes efficiently – from keeping drivers on track and on schedule to staying in compliance of a changing set of federally mandated electronic logging regulations.
