I got my 2016 REM HEMI Rebel since few weeks in Hungary Europe.
Unfortunatelly is no NAVIgation on board. Only OFF switch on this position on the screen.
Have to manage it somehow. OK but...
Anybody knows why was NAVI left out from standard in a modern expensive vehicle?
Even cheeper cars have one nowadays.
Thanks

Hmmm....my Rebel has it. It was probably an option.....Ram has two levels of the radio (nav and non-nav). You aren't missing much.....it's expensive to update ($100 usd+), and the updates are always a few years behind. And I don't even know if there is a Europe version (maybe). You could upgrade to the 18'+ radio, which has Android Auto/ Apple Carplay. Plenty of folks have done that on the Ram forum. I'd do it, but I still have a warranty.

I was just wondering. Why must be NAVI an option in a such expensive vehicle?
OK a can live without, but come on RAM...! Its just like leave the right mirror off to dump production costs. Nowadays have it all cheeper VWs etc. on board. Should be stock like aircondition in newer cars.
