Following TomTom’s announcement of its 930T with new IQRoutes and Advanced Lane Guidance features, it has now confirmed availability of the entire x30 range.

If you’ve been put off by the rather expensive £399 price tag of the line-leading 930T (and don’t need maps of the USA, Canada and Russia, for example) you’ll be pleased to know there are cheaper models available.

The GO 730 focuses on Europe only, and is available in both non-traffic and traffic-enabled versions for £299.99 and £329.99 respectively.

At the bottom of the range the Xenophobe’s choice is the 530, offering maps of the UK and Ireland for £249.99 or £279.99 if you want traffic data.

Luckily all of the navigators offer the headline new features, along with traditional extras like TomTom MapShare, hands-free calling via Bluetooth, a 4.3” widescreen display and voice address input.

You’ll also find an FM transmitter, safety camera database and all the typical customisation options that allow you to personalise the device with different voices and the like.

The range is available now in stores across the UK. – Paul Lester
