TomTom has received the Auto Express Product of the Year 2009 Award for its GO x40 LIVE series of connected sat nav devices. Having previously scooped the Auto Express Best Buy 2009 award this February for the GO 740 LIVE, it seems TomTom continue to impress with the GO x40 LIVE series.

The TomTom GO x40 range includes a variety of innovative features, such as IQ Routes, which calculates routes based on real average speeds and Advanced Lane Guidance, which gives a more realistic view and enhanced visual instructions of the driver’s surroundings.

The key to the range however, is the new LIVE Services functionality, which provides a live connection to the most up-to-date real-time route information and provides premium services such as High Definition Traffic, up-to-date mobile safety camera locations, Google search and Live fuel prices.

Kim Adams of Auto Express commented, “This set-up is uncannily accurate, and works in tandem with the brand’s IQ routes system – which uses historical data to select the best route for when you are travelling – to keep journey times to a minimum. It is the missing link for portable sat-navs, and just has to be our Product of the Year.”
