For life on the go, nüvi 250 packs preloaded maps for North America or Europe and millions of destinations in a sleek, stylish navigator. For more mapping options, check out the transatlantic nüvi 270 or nüvi 200 with less map coverage at a lower price. Like the rest of the nüvi 200-series, nüvi 250 is affordably priced and simple to use.

Arrive In Style

Available in classic silver and now pink, there's a nüvi 250 for every taste. Go pink and accessorize your look with nüvi 250 and its matching case (sold separately). Smart and stylish, this pink nüvi is packed with detailed roads and points of interest. Take nüvi shopping and get turn-by-turn directions to the front door. It also fits neatly in your handbag. No matter the color, you'll always arrive fashionably early with nüvi.

Navigate With Ease

nüvi 250 comes ready to go right out of the box with preloaded City Navigator® NT street maps, including a hefty points of interest (POIs) database with hotels, restaurants, fuel, ATMs and more. Simply touch the color screen to enter a destination, and nüvi takes you there with 2-D or 3-D maps and turn-by-turn voice directions. In addition, nüvi 250 accepts custom points of interest (POIs), such as school zones and safety cameras and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs.

Take It With You

Like the rest of the nüvi 200-series, nüvi 250 sports a sleek, slim design and fits comfortably in your pocket or purse. Its rechargeable lithium-ion battery makes it convenient for navigation by car or foot.
