You've been holding out for something that links all of your devices together into one seamless experience. You love the idea of a system that can be operated by the sound of your voice. It's time to stop wishing for the next great thing because it's here. This is your life made easier.

Beyond the Ordinary.
A traditional portable navigation device lacks the extensive mapping commonly found with in-dash navigation systems. It also can be completely void of any entertainment value. The AVIC-LINC brings the convenience of portable navigation together with the robust entertainment features found only in our in-dash units.

A New Class of Navigation
No more hassling with map discs. Now you don't have to worry about discs being misplaced, damaged, lost, or stolen because we've done away with them for the F-Series navigation line. We've taken the entire TeleAtlas Database that was previously on the two-DVD set, compressed it down, and stored it internally on flash memory. Read More.

Freedom of Speech
The AVIC-LINC offers a new generation of voice recognition capability for controlling iPod playback and making calls hands-free via connected Bluetooth-enabled cell phones. The technology accepts and recognizes conversational phrases and language, filters out superfluous sounds and phrases, and if the user doesn't give enough information in the command, the unit will ask additional questions to clarify the request. Read More.

Bluetooth TechnologyIn touch, hands-free
The AVIC-LINC comes with built-in Bluetooth. Now you never need to miss a call, even if your tunes are cranked up or your phone is buried in your bag.  

Subscribe to a Better Solution

At a glance, see updated road conditions, search for movie times, find the best gas deals in your area, and get directions - all without leaving the car!

Simplified Menus and 3D Landmarks

Quickly enter destinations, browse music libraries, or adjust settings. Enhances your map with 3D Landmarks. Our advanced iPod® integration allows exclusive features like iPod® album art overlayed on the navigation display

Mobile Media
We've created a line of Navigation systems that make it easy to play various digital and audio formats like: USB memory devices, Portable Media Players like iPod®, and SD Cards. We can play a wide range of files types as well, such as MP3, WMA, iTunes AAC, DIVX, and MPEG-4 video files. Read More.

Make It Personal
Personalize your drive. AVIC FEEDS freeware contains POI Creator, Driving Report, and Picture Editor Applications. You never know where the road will take you, but our POI Creator can help you get started on the right path. Download AVIC FEEDS here.

Seeing Is Believing
The old WQVGA displays that most Navigation units use are 480 x 234 pixels. However, our WVGA display is much higher quality at 800 x 480 pixels. Images become sharper and more defined, just like our maps and menus on these units. The display's enhanced GUI (Graphic User Interface) has also advanced, making system control and management effortless. Read More.

iPod Control Made Simple
With the new CD-IU200VM cable, you can directly control your music and videos from your iPod®.  Fast and easy control through USB, the AVIC-LINC also features iPod Album Art display, Alphabetical Speed Search, and much more. Click Here to see iPod® compatibility chart.

Adding Another Set of Eyes
For safer parking, try using the ND-BC2 or ND-BC20PA backup cameras. The system automatically displays images shot from a connected camera as the vehicle shifts into reverse.
