Garmin nuvi 670 review

UPDATE: Though still available and supported, Garmin has discontinued the nuvi 670. For newer models, check out my Garmin nuvi comparison chart.

UPDATE 3: The latest trans-Atlantic navigators to be introduced are the Garmin nuvi 2475LT and nuvi 2370LT.

The Garmin nuvi 670 is identical to the nuvi 660 with one exception — in addition to North America, the nuvi 670 adds pre-loaded maps of Europe (see coverage map below).

The nuvi 270, nuvi 370 and the latest, the nuvi 770, are the only other nuvis with pre-loaded maps for both sides of the pond. Stepping down to the 370 you lose the 670’s built-in FM transmitter and wide screen. The nuvi 270 has even less features, losing the ability to speak street names,  the MP3 player, Bluetooth, and traffic receiver. Going the other direction, the nuvi 770 adds a host of features to the 670’s set, including multi-destination routing.
