Cobra unveils 5550 PRO Navigation System

CHICAGO -- Cobra Electronics Corporation today announced the Cobra 5550 PRO, its new 5-inch navigation unit specifically designed for the professional driver. 

"With the 5550 PRO, we've taken virtually all the power and functionality of the award-winning 7750 Platinum unit and paired it with a 5-inch LCD screen. The result is one of the most impressive navigation systems on the market for professional truckersm" said Sally Washlow, senior vice president of marketing and sales.

The map in the 5550 PRO delivers more than 1 million additional miles of road coverage in the US than the competing maps, plus 17x more last mile (dock-to-dock) coverage and 4x more trucking attribute coverage on secondary highways.

The Cobra 5550 PRO will be available at travel centers nationwide beginning in April 2011 for a suggested retail price of $349.95. For more information, please visit Cobra in Booth #17084 at the Mid-America Trucking Show, March 30 through April 2, 2011, or visit http://www.cobra.com.
