Product Detail

Introducing the new SANYO Easy Street NVM-4370 portable GPS navigation system, equipped with intuitive user menus, convenient navigation features and entertainment options.

Text-To-Speech Navigation: Easy Street’s NVM-4370 unit features turn-by-turn, text-to-speech navigation. Text-to-speech technology announces approaching street names and the number of feet or yards until your turn. It’s like having your own personal guide riding with you in the car.

Bluetooth: Easy Street incorporates Bluetooth technology, allowing convenient, wireless connectivity and hands-free use with Bluetooth enabled cell phones, even while in navigation mode. You can also wirelessly transfer data between your Bluetooth enabled device and the Easy Street System. Send text messages, transfer contact and phonebook data.

Pre-Installed Maps: Set up of the Easy Street Navigation System is simple because there’s no software to download. Maps are pre-loaded and ready to go. Map data covers the US, including Alaska and Hawaii, Canada and Puerto Rico.

TMC & Auto/Manual Detour: The SANYO Easy Street NVM-4370 unit gives you the option of utilizing TMC when you purchase the TMC receiver sold separately, through Traffic Message Channel. This application broadcasts real-time traffic and weather information, alerting the driver of any upcoming problems on the planned route. Get instant knowledge of accidents, roadwork delays and traffic jams that may delay the original arrival time to your desired destination. The Auto/Manual Detour feature will calculate an alternative route so you can avoid the incident. A free 90-day trial of TMC service is included with your Easy Street NVM-4370 (TMC receiver sold separately)! If you continue to use TMC service after 90 days, click here to purchase and activate your 12-month subscription.

Built-in Antenna: Easy Street’s NVM-4370 features a clean and simplified design integrating a built-in antenna, reducing set-up time and clutter. There are not additional wires or attachments to place on your car’s dashboard or rooftop. This integrated antenna design also makes taking Easy Street anywhere with you convenient and hassle-free.

Large 4.3″ Touch-Screen LCD: Easy Street’s 4.3″ touch-screen 16:9 LCD display allows you to view maps, photos and video clips in bright, vivid color. On this beautiful display, the navigation options and user menus are easy to see and select.

Video Input Terminal: With safety and convenience being so important, SANYO has truly offered that with the NVM-4370’s video input terminal. This unit is preprogrammed to search for a back-up camera when this feature is activated. In conjunction with the back-up camera installation a signal is sent to the NVM-4370 when plugged in to automatically display the camera feed. This allows you to have the safety of a back-up camera in your personal vehicle and still have a portable navigation unit to use when traveling in another vehicle.
