ALL ABOUT THE SERVICE

Complete peace of mind

Enjoy the time spent in your car to the full ! 

With Real Time Traffic you can avoid traffic jams, find the address you’re looking for or the closest petrol station thanks to real time updates provided by the millions of TomTom users. 

A dedicated assistant at your service

When following an itinerary, it is annoying to be pestered when you didn't ask to be. The DS automobiles Navigation uses the collaborative power of TomTom for the best interests of each of its users. Your data will never be used for commercial purposes. No inconvenient adverts, no pop-ups, no requests to talk to a unknown co-user. Just the best GPS solutions in real time brought together on one screen. 

The road network is constantly evolving: traffic directions change, pedestrian areas expand and some roads are no longer accessible to cars. To get the most out of your navigation system and get optimal directions, make sure that all data is always correct: if your vehicle is equipped with "Over-the-air" Map Update, it will do the updates automatically - but even if it's not, you can easily update your maps. Regularly visit the dedicated section on the DS website to check if any update is available for you: enter your VIN, check if there are new updates to download and follow the simple instructions.
Just follow the best route with your DS.
