Garmin adds built-in dash cam to its cutting-edge trucking navigator

dēzlCam OTR710 truck navigator with built-in dash cam serves as an eyewitness on the road, helping long-haul truck drivers protect their livelihood

OLATHE, Kan./July 6, 2022 – Garmin International, Inc., a unit of Garmin Ltd. (NYSE: GRMN), today announced the new dēzlCam™ OTR710, bringing high-definition camera technology to its best-in-class 7-inch dēzl™ navigator. Purpose-built for over-the-road truck drivers, this all-in-one solution features a 1080p dash cam1 with a wide 140-degree field of view that continually records the drive and automatically saves video of any incidents. It’s an invaluable companion for professional truck drivers who want to protect their driving reputation, serving as an “eyewitness” and source of truth if necessary. Users can easily view and share clips of important videos from a smartphone. Each video clip is automatically stored in the secure online Vault to easily view and share2 using the dēzl app.

Thanks to the built-in, high-definition camera, the dēzlCam OTR710 provides advanced driver-assisted warnings, including forward collision and lane departure cautions3 to help increase driver awareness and encourage safer driving.

Building on the robust feature set of the latest dēzl OTR series, the new dēzlCam OTR710 also offers drivers:

  • A sharp 7-inch display for a clear view and an easy-to-use experience
  • Custom routing4 based on the size and weight of the rig
  • Road warnings for upcoming hazards, including steep grades, sharp curves and more
  • Birdseye Satellite Imagery shows high-resolution overhead views upon arrival at a destination
  • A directory of truck and trailer services for added convenience on the road
  • Display of loyalty rewards points at participating travel plazas across the U.S.
  • Built-in PrePass® notifications5 for upcoming U.S. weigh stations and bypass decisions
  • Seamless integration with Garmin dēzl Headsets, an Instinct® 2 – dēzl Edition smartwatch and BC™ 50 wireless backup camera (each sold separately) to help enhance life on the road

Available now, the dēzlCam OTR710 has a suggested retail price of $599.99. To learn more visit garmin.com/dezl.
