That will be pretty expensive. Its like throwing money into the drain when there are better choices.

Why not use the GPS on our phone?

I think  BM Charge even more expensive to update...  the moral of the story is world have changed with phone gps which is more accurate updated and free... yet car company still Want to come with their proprietary gps.. and still hope to earn money.. 

not sure Toyota smart keyless system is secure from relay attack? So many car affected including Toyota.. if they still use the hacked smart system for Altis.... then really hopeless this company... I hope they know technology adoption got to be latest and not get older tech... security vulnerability need to patch or fix regularly....

They need to wake up and understand what is technology... if cannot understand, Just don’t adopt.... at least it is reliable...

Yea. Previous car had had navigation systems built in, then MCE came, and I saw myself driving in the water. AD charging close to $200 just to update maps. And it didnt have the RTTI feature. 

Now using Android Auto, can see traffic condition, reply whatsapp, sms, change music via google assistance, life is so much better. With Waze, I will know where got road works, crouching tiger(highway patrol) and hidden dragon(overhead bridge speed trap).

It doesnt detect. Is more like a social navigation app. So for example, I was driving down the road and saw an accident happen in front of me, I just input that there is an accident, and waze will share this information to all waze users.

Tried Garmin, Google Map, WAZE, in the end find waze the best, but most put in auto mode without north up.
