Garmin has developed customized navigation systems for several leading automotive and motorcycle OEMs.
In September, we announced a relationship with Honda in which Garmin was named a Tier 1 supplier for their
Goldwing motorcycles. This is significant in that Garmin will supply directly to the manufacturer, which means
our navigation system has met their demanding performance and quality specs. Harley riders can also have
guidance by Garmin with the Roadtech Quest now offered as an option on Harley-Davidson®Road Glide and
Electra Glide touring bikes. We are also continuing to offer navigation systems customized for touring bikes
in the BMW Motorcycles lineup.
Garmin announced a partnership with Chrysler’s Mopar division to offer the Navus™as a dealer-installed
option on several Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep models. Navus provides premium navigation capabilities at a price
that’s significantly less than built-in systems. Another dealer-installed option, Trail Guide™, is now available for
Jeep Wrangler models. This versatile system doubles as a handheld navigator for adventures on foot.
In Europe, Garmin navigation products are offered as options through OEMs Citroen, Peugeot and Ford.
Ford and many other dealerships in various countries also offer Garmin products as purchase options or
incentives. We’re exposing a large new group of consumers to the power of our easy-going navigation systems
when they rent a car for business or vacation travel. Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group is currently offering our
StreetPilot c330 as an option for their rental customers at an affordable daily rate. The units include a database
of Dollar and Thrifty rental locations, making it easy for customers to route to a return facility.
