Snooper S6400 Pro explained

The Snooper S6400 comprises of three different models each designed to yes navigate you, but in three very different vehicle types. The three S6400 models include the S6400 Syrius which is for drivers of cars/small vans only, the S6400 Truckmate for drivers of trucks, HGV's and other oversized vehicles and the S6400 Ventura which is for drivers towing caravans and driving motorhomes.

What makes these three sat navs so different isn't the maps, but the database of preloaded road heights and widths. When using for example the Snooper S6400 Truckmate in a lorry, you can enter the lorries height, width, weight and even load type. Using this data the S6400 truck version will then calculate the best route for the vehicle you are driving and most importantly avoiding low bridges and road which are just too narrow. Furthermore if you then change your cab for car, there's also a car only mode on both the Truckmate and Ventura versions of the S6400 satnav.


Snooper S6400 Pro features

The Snooper S6400 sat nav range features a large 7-inch LCD screen which provides turn by turn voice directions to your destination. In addition the S6400 features both lane guidance and junction view - these two handy on screen features let you know which lane to be in at motorway junctions and exits.

There's also a free lifetime TMC (Traffic Message Channel) traffic information service feature which will route you around roadwork's, congestion and traffic jams along your route ahead.

The feature ‘Your Route’ makes it possible to save your bespoke routes. Plus, if you are visiting multiple destinations you can navigate to up to 16 different destinations by inputting post codes of each destination.

The Snooper S6400 also includes an MP3 and MP4 player for playback of sound and video files. The S6400 is also Bluetooth enabled allowing for handsfree calls.


FREE lifetime map updates

Which ever version of the S6400 Pro sat nav you buy it includes free lifetime map updates of the preloaded maps.

Map coverage

There are both UK and Ireland and full Europe mapping versions of the car Syrius and truck Truckmate S6400 models. But there is only a European mapping version available for the caravan/motorhome S6400 Ventura.

The full Europe versions include the following maps:

UK, Ireland, France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, Holland, Luxembourg, Germany, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Poland, Estonia, Lithuania, Czech Republic, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Hungary, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Serbia, Montenegro, Croatia, Turkey, Greece, Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, F.Yugoslavia Rep.of Macedonia, Russia


Speed camera alerts

If alerts to speed camera locations in a sat nav are important to you, then for an additional cost you can add speed camera alerts to the Snooper S6400 sat nav.

Like Snoopers range of dedicated speed camera detectors, their sat nav range also uses the Snooper Aura speed camera database. This database really is second to none, being updated on a daily basis (most others are at best updated weekly) and is also fed from actual motorists using other Snooper devices as well as their in house speed camera database team.

The AURA database can be downloaded to the S6400 Pro via a Windows based PC connected to the internet. It's important you regularly update, as the S6400 database is only as good as the last download.

snooper AURA speed camera database is available via subscription from the manufacturer and priced at £69.99 a year.
