Garmin New nuvi 1200 and 1300 Series
The nuvi 1200 (3.5″ touchscreen) and 1300 series (4.3″ touchscreen) feature a new, thinner design (approximately 25% thinner than previous nuvis), and offer advanced features like text-to-speech, free lifetime traffic and lane assist at an affordable price. All the 1200 and 1300 models also feature a new “Enhanced Pedestrian Mode”, and something called “Public Transit Mode”.
