Navigate your way with an enhanced sense of reality

Clarion car navigation appeals to your senses to provide more effective guidance.

Visually the 3D rendered graphics help place you in the real-world driving environment more effectively. Aurally the text-to-speech function offers voice assistance so even first-time users will have an easy time reaching their destinations.

Smart touch-panel controls enable you to access information at the touch of a fingertip.

Layouts are devised to enable instantaneous display of desired information, while detailed information can easily be called up with a light touch.

One step closer to clear and safe driving. While streets are displayed on the screen, the voice guidance tells you their actual name. Also, the system is able to tell you the direction to take, exactly like a passenger would do! For example, if you drive in Paris, you would hear “... After 100 m, turn left onto Rue Washington…”

The POI content database offers access to just about any point of interest in your surroundings. In addition to petrol stations and tourist information offices, you can look up the closest ATM, swimming pools, specific business areas and much, much more… Needless to say, you can also search for any POI by its name. Last but not least, you can use “My POI” zone to create your own POI favourites file.

Receive instant traffic information updates through the built-in TMC receiver.

The NX509E / NP509E can receive toll-free traffic information (TMC). You are always informed whenever new information is broadcast.

Elevation information on the road network is used to draw roads and bridges in a realistic way, so you won’t get “lost” at complex intersections. When travelling on a motorway, the system shows which lanes allow you to exit and which ones continue ahead, so you won’t miss an exit road. Buildings close to you are drawn as transparent objects to avoid obstructing the next intersection, while buildings further away are textured and easily recognisable.

Comprehensive digital elevation model data is used to draw height and depth features for a realistic landscape at all levels of zoom. While driving, hills and mountains are rendered in 3D to better represent your real world driving environment. 3D landmark data is integrated seamlessly into the graphical rendering in 3D mode, and it does o not block the view of POIs and other useful information on the map.
