As part of a strategic move to provide dedicated sat-nav solutions to the commercial vehicle market worldwide and following on from the successful launch of ProNav in the UK, Navevo's ProNav PNN200E, featuring Western European maps, is set to make its way into mainland Europe.

Featuring NAVTEQ Transport, ProNav has been designed from the ground up to appeal to the specific needs of the European trucker.

It allows drivers to enter their vehicles' vital statistics, including; weight, height, length, width and the goods they are carrying, the software then calculates a route to ensure drivers are not confronted with roads or obstacles not suitable for their vehicle or cargo.

ProNav also warns drivers of hazards such as steep hills, high cross winds, and the risk of grounding. These are displayed as icons on the software's maps, well in advance of approach to provide drivers with time to decide whether to change their route. ProNav can instantly re-route a driver's journey if deemed necessary.

"We are dedicated to developing solutions for niche markets which have very specific requirements," said David Guiver, Sales and Marketing Director at Navevo.

"ProNav was recently awarded the Frost and Sullivan 2008 European Telematics Product Innovation Award and following a heavy-weight marketing and PR campaign, is attracting attention across the globe. As one of the fastest growing GPS software developers, we will be using CeBIT as a springboard to unveil the ProNav PNN200E to Europe with the primary objective being to grow our European reseller base. We are confident that we will come away with new partners to help deliver our specialist solution to the European commercial vehicle market."

The news follows two successful UK launches for Navevo. In September last year they launched BBNav, the first sat-nav solution for the disabled driving community, followed by the second version of its ProNav software, the company's flagship product, in December.

With plans to launch the ProNav PNN200E in France and Germany first, shortly followed by other European countries such as Benelux and Austria, Navevo is looking to form long term strategic partnerships with channel partners that are well positioned to take the PNN200E to their respective markets across Europe.
