FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Oct. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Hyundai Motor America will offer navigation systems from Garmin International Inc. through its network of 725 dealers beginning in October. Current Hyundai owners, as well as new Hyundai buyers, will have the option of adding a customized version of the award-winning nuvi 360 personal navigation device to their vehicle. The Hyundai-branded nuvi also features a custom Hyundai start-up screen and database of Hyundai dealerships and service centers across the nation.
"We're excited to offer our owners the option of adding navigation technology from one of the leaders in the industry," said Frank Ferrara, executive vice president, Parts, for Hyundai Motor America.
