Welcome to Garmin’s 2009 CES Media Kit!
We hope this is a valuable resource for finding press releases, images, and other info on our new product introductions. Founded in 1989, this year marks the 20th anniversary of innovation at Garmin, and we think this year’s CES lineup demonstrates what our company is all about.
At Garmin we listen to our customers, and in these trying economic times, we’re giving away a completely unique money-saving, earth-saving feature called ecoRoute. Available for free download and compatible with our two most popular series (the nüvi 205 and nüvi 705 series), ecoRoute gives drivers the ability to automatically plot their most fuel-efficient route. Drivers can keep track of their fuel economy and take steps to make sure they’re driving as efficiently as possible.
Not only is Garmin one of the first-ever satellite navigation companies, we’re the global leader by virtually any metric. Independent analysts confirm that we sell more GPS devices than anyone else, but that’s just the beginning. We’re also serving customers in more varied markets than any other manufacturer – whether it’s pilots, boaters, hikers, runners, cyclists, suburban commuters, or urban movers and shakers. And we’re expanding into a new market today with the introduction of the Approach G5 – our first GPS for golfers.
And that’s only the beginning. Take a look around, and we think you’ll quickly understand why we’re celebrating 20 years as the global leader in satellite navigation.
