Is the Navigation System Standard on the Kodiaq GT?

[Candice]

The Kodiaq GT comes standard with a navigation system across all trims. Equipping the car with a navigation system allows for the setting of optimal travel routes, saving driving time and fuel costs. The use of navigation can also reduce the likelihood of taking wrong turns. Below is some relevant information about the standard navigation system: 1. The car navigation system enables drivers to know their exact location at any time during driving. It also features automatic voice navigation and optimal route search functions, making driving easier and travel more efficient. 2. With the continuous development of the automotive industry, car navigation systems are gradually incorporating more functions, including multimedia playback and 3D real-world map navigation. The car navigation system mainly consists of two parts: one is the GPS receiver installed in the car, and the other is the computer control center. These two parts communicate via positioning satellites.

Last time when accompanying my friend for a test drive of the Kodiaq GT, I specifically asked the salesperson. Indeed, the base models from 2019 to 2023 don't come with built-in navigation and require connecting a phone to use CarPlay. However, the mid-to-high trim levels are much more generous. For example, the luxury version directly comes with a 9.2-inch large screen featuring GPS navigation and even supports voice control. The new top trim even includes AR real-world navigation, with enlarged intersection diagrams projected directly onto the instrument cluster. But honestly, many people nowadays prefer using mobile navigation, as the car's navigation system still requires frequent WiFi connections to update map packages.
