INDIANAPOLIS. The Pro 7150 from TomTom Business Solutions offers improved guidance and faster route calculation to help commercial drivers reach their destinations faster.
The device, being displayed at this week’s National Truck Equipment Assn.’s Work Truck Show here, features TomTom IQ Routes, which recommends routes based on actual traffic speeds rather than posted speed limits to route drivers the quickest way for that time of day.
“In business, time is money, so with a fleet of vehicles on the road eight or more hours a day, every minute saved on a journey delivers real savings,” said Michael Geffroy, vice president of sales, North America for TomTom Business Solutions. “The TomTom PRO 7150 enables fleet operators to navigate with greater ease to their destinations via the fastest routes, which ultimately allows them to spend more time with their customers and less time on the road.”
