<h2>Integrated 30 GB hard disk for navigation and music files.</h2> There's plenty of space on the internal hard disk for all the navigation data required – 10 GB's worth. A further 20 GB are reserved for music files. As a result, you have a jukebox for the journey which makes an entire archive of your favourite music accessible at any time.
Operation and organisation of the hard disk is intuitive and simple. Digital map data and music files are transferred simply from an SD card, a CD or a DVD.
<h2>CD, DVD and SD card reader for audio, MP3, WMA and video (MPEG2).</h2> The RNS 510 multimedia star is equipped to play various digital media. It reads CDs, DVDs and SD cards and is thus compatible with audio, MP3, WMA and MPEG2.
<h2>Map data from the market leader NAVTEQ.</h2> The map information from the market-leader NAVTEQ takes care of precise route guidance. It means you'll always be going the right way in 26 countries in western Europe and 33 countries in eastern Europe and you'll always be relaxed when you reach your destination, with no detours.
Thanks to the annual map updates, road layout changes are continually recorded by NAVTEQ and integrated into their data. Information about new map updates is available at .
<h2>Various navigation options, dynamic route guidance.</h2> The RNS 510 supports your personal preferences in choosing a route – the shortest, quickest or most economical. Motorways, toll roads, ferries and tunnels can be avoided. Special destinations along the route, such as petrol stations, services or places of interest, can be displayed.
And to ensure you don't waste any time, dynamic route guidance with traffic jam avoidance by means of TMC (Traffic Message Channel) is, of course, integral to the RNS 510.
<h2>Picture navigation.</h2> A picture says more than a thousand words. Images of destinations can be coupled with the associated geodata from the VW Picture Navigation Portal on the Internet and stored on the SD card. Data for picture navigation can thus be easily transferred to the RNS 510 and routes to destinations navigated using the images.

<h2>Double-tuner technology for the best radio reception.</h2> The radio module of the RNS 510 has a double tuner with phase diversity technology.

<h2>Third tuner for constant TMC reception
(Traffic Message Channel).</h2> The third tuner keeps the RNS 510 continuously updated about the current traffic situation. As a result, dynamic route guidance with avoidance of traffic jams is always available. You therefore never waste time, and you reach your destination relaxed and on schedule.
