Mine is set up for and in the USA. It locates well here. iGo maps are available for Europe but I have not tested this unit with other maps sets. The tech support for Power Acoustik is wonderful contact them direct tech-support@poweracoustik.com or 800-832-4647 x243 Mon-Fri 8AM - 4:30PM Pacific Time.

You can buy maps for just about any country. Garmin supports over 100. The basic one comes with US and Canada but you can specify Brazil when you order. You can also buy maps for other countries as you need it. I bought the unit with NA but later on added EU and Japan. You can decide which map to use by downloading it using the PC or MAC app. Hope this helps

You can buy maps for europe and asia from garmin.com. If I understand correctly, you can buy them pre-loaded on a card and just swap it for the North America one. But they are in the $400 price range!

Hi, I have used mine for years. Been to England, Scotland, Ireland, Germany, and Spain & Netherlands. Were never lost & made it to our destination. The best advice is to call Garmin's toll-free # and they explain what the current model has built in plus what else is loadable.

Hello Derick. I am sorry I have not responded before.Yes you can. The GPS is programmed to use Lat and Long and UTM co-ordinates.

Yes additional maps can be purchased online by connections you device to your computer using the included USB cable and then downloading Tomtoms software, through which you setup an account and go to the tomtom web site. There are a number of different EU maps - northern, western, south etc with different features and map detail.

Yes. I've use other Garmin GPSs in Africa, Australia, Europe, etc. The base map that comes on this GPS has a few roads in Asia, but you would want detailed maps for wherever you want to use it, including the US. You can buy these maps, or get free ones from OpenStreetMap.

This can be used world-wide if you buy the additional City Navigator maps for your country or region. I'm from Belgium and purchased the City Navigator Europe NT with it on micro SD card. Take a look http://sites.garmin.com/montana/ for additional information.

It comes w/European maps. I haven't tried to get updates, but I have been led to believe that those are available at no charge -- for a lifetime. One function I used a number of times was (under "Tools") was "Where Am I?" This worked right off the bat when we got to Switzerland. This came in handy when we visited a large city especially later on when we were in France. I'd park the car, go to the Where Am I function, give the location a name and save it to Favorites. Later, when we wanted go back to the car, I'd bring up the name (I'd call it "Car"), and the Garmin would direct me back without a problem - finding the car in a strange city would have been quite a challenge without the Garmin.

I believe that for a fee, you can download Europe Maps from Garmin. I'm sure this takes time, as updates take a few hours over hi speed internet.

You can read reviews on 1370 Garmin nuvi, people speak of generally positive experience. I just bought it and although it did have European maps, I don't know what exact countries it had - I decided to use the free Europe map update download to get it up-to-date. What I found is that it does not have sufficient memory to hold the whole Europe map! So you can either chose your countries (they have Italy + Greece), and add others - I was not interested in Balkans since I go to Italy, but I think they had coverage of whole Europe except for Russia, so they certainly had Croatia, Bulgaria and other Balkan countries. If Garmin covers those, it should work there just fine. You can try to enter some address there from here to save them in Favorites - some hotel where you will be staying, etc, and see if it finds it. That would give you an indication if your device has the coverage of your country of destination. I did that with all my Italian hotels now, 2 weeks in advance of my voyage, and it feels reassuring :) You could visit their site http://www.garmin.com/us/ and read more, and register your device. Then it will know what you have and will prompt you for maps/accessories. Bon voyage! Anna

Yes the unit works in Europe. However you must purchase the software for the respective countries. Google; Garmin European maps for details. Lloyd

My phone was pre-loaded with US maps. If you don't have maps pre-loaded, you can always download them from Nokia and then install on the device: http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/maps/download

European maps are about $89. The question is does this GPS have sufficient memory to add a European map? Some of the earlier models let you add an SD card. I don't think this one does.

I also bought a mio c520the has US maps on it by default. I was told by mio that I CAn't use Europe maps on it since the US models is only for US maps. Has anyone had the same experience?

Check out my review - you should be able to find most of the info you are looking for there. I would recommend that you update the Europe maps, then copy them to your computer, then remove them from your device. That way you will have a copy of the latest Europe map (via "latest map guarantee") on your PC for later, if and when you need it, without it taking up tons of space.
