Garmin DriveSmart 61 LMT-D Europe

 

The DriveSmart 61 LMT-D Europe replaces the DriveSmart 60LMT-D that Garmin released about a year ago. The new device sees an increase in screen size, from 6 to 7 inches (6.95-inch, to be exact), delivering an even bigger satnav for your money.

The Garmin DriveSmart 61 Europe LMT-D packs tons of features into a 7-inch sat-nav that isn’t hugely expensive for its size.

  (Rating Hidden)

The Garmin DriveSmart 61 LMT-D sat nav has an edge-to-edge screen, built-in wi-fi and digital traffic straight out of the box. Do these fancy features add up to a pleasant journey? We put this sat nav through its paces to find out.

GARMIN DriveSmart 61 LMT-D 6.95" Sat Nav - Full Europe Maps

 

Large display, clear instructions (for the most part). Showing pictures of motorway exits is a boon.

This SatNav does produce some very strange instructions occasionally. Most of these have tried to take me down what is clearly the wrong road, and then back onto the right route again - adding 50m or so to the route, and sometimes even going backwards...

Garmin DriveSmart 61 LMT-D

 

Large screen, clear display

Consistently choosing unnecessary turnings off onto unclassified single track roads and even unmade farm tracks rather than the fastest route - even if already travelling on A and B roads which led directly to the destination. No apparent way to change...
