WHAT YOU'LL LOVE
CRISP HD VIDEO
With 1080p HD video, a 140-degree lens and Garmin Clarity HDR optics, you'll be able to record crisp video of important details, day and night.
ULTRACOMPACT SIZE
This car key-sized dash cam goes virtually unnoticed on your windshield. The ultracompact device is powered by a slim cable, which features two routing options — upward or downward — for a tidy and discreet installation.
AUTOMATIC INCIDENT DETECTION
Once plugged into your vehicle's power source, you can just set it and forget it. The camera continually records and automatically saves video of detected incidents with date and time stamps to show exactly when events occurred.
GARMIN CLARITY POLARISER
See important details more clearly, and reduce windshield glare — thanks to the built-in Garmin Clarity polariser lens enhancement.
VIEW AND SHARE VIDEOS
The Vault makes it easy to securely share your important videos. With a paid Vault subscription and Wi-Fi® connectivity, saved video clips are accessible by using the Garmin Drive app on your compatible smartphone.
VOICE CONTROL
Keep your hands on the wheel by using voice commands to tell the camera to save video and start/stop audio recording. This feature is available in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian and Swedish.
THE POLARISER DIFFERENCE
This image comparison was captured simultaneously with the same video resolution, but only one dash cam features the Garmin Clarity polariser to significantly increase clarity. Images may not reflect exact picture resolution and pixel quality.
