"New" Sat Nav?
After putting up with the Volvo crap-nav for 12 years now (in 2 XC90s) I hope the new XC90 has a new and much improved version.
What I find most annoying, is that when approaching roundabouts (or junctions) it will usually say "Take the third exit", or "turn right" but does NOT say onto which road.
It will even repeat this "Take the 1st exit then at the roundabout take the 1st exit" when there are manoeuvres to be made in quick succession.
There are many new or altered junctions on the roads now, and these probably don't feature on the new map setups. However, the layout won't really matter if you are told which road number you should be taking, or in the direction of which town you should be heading.
I have heard phone-based sat navs, as well as Garmin types, tell you which road you will be going onto, and my Wife's Prius has operated like that for 5 years.
Will the new sat-nav avoid the soubriquet "Crap-Nav"?
