This is SD card version, at least the one which I bought, As per Garmin The SD card version does not entitle for updates, I haven't received any so far.

Possibly they don't allow updates. But you can buy new Micro SD cards with new maps in India.

It's free, but no where near as good as Google's traffic on your cell phone. Garmin relies of FM signals to get traffic data. Reception is spotty. For example, if you drive from NY to Boston, only about 1/2 the route is covered.

Yes, you do have to pay for updates. Garmin just released updated maps. They are FREE for recent buyers of other units. But, Garmin will NOT give a free copy to buyers of the Garmin i5. The updated maps cost $70.

I was able to do this for all of my hotels and points of interest for my trip to France a year ago and it worked fine. I have City Navigator on an SD card that inserts in my Garmin.

My guess is that they will be behind by one version at least. I've never bought a GPS that didn't need an update after purchase. Easy to update via web access and generally free initially at least.

I purchased a Garmin Nuvi in December of 2012 and there have been NO UPDATES to the "free" lifetime maps as of January 2015 .... ripoff!!!

Should you receive a unit with the older maps:Several of us who received the older v. 8 maps have been promised the new v. 2008 maps at no charge when the DVD is available. Can't promise, but Garmin was very nice to me about getting the map updates. I contacted techsupp, but others have also contacted product support with success. Hopefully Garmin has changed their policy to provide the map updates for free now, if you've purchased since the new version started shipping.

Nope, these are not SW upgrades nor Firmware upgrades you can get later. Some of these features are Hardware capabilities so you do not get additional capabilities as time goes by. SW upgrades tends to be bug fixes or new additions of the map data. IN my observaton, Garmin will add back "some" of these capabilities in a future model line.

I think so, but I only downloaded the US. You should contact Garmin to make sure.

Mine has free map upgrades for life, not sure if that is what you are asking though.

No, and I am considering purchasing a new GPS unit that does include lifetime map updates. It won't cost much more than buying new maps for this one. most directions are fine, but there are some changes since 2010 when I bought it and I would update if I could.

It should, and I think that would have old roads at least 5 years old. but still you should be fine , cause roads don't change that offen in India. And it listed in compatible device in this link says on this link https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/maps/on-the-road-maps/city-navigator-nt/city-navigator-india-nt/prod65217.html which is the latest version. So definitely should support your device too.

The company literature refers customers to www.garmin.com. There is a reference to City Navigator Europe NT. Apparently the extra maps can be downloaded from their web site for an additional charge. Best to contact the company and verify all of this information before buying.

Yes. It comes with a map function that is the same as GPS, and you can also get several free GPS apps.
