GPS with large color display with touchscreen, auto-routing accounting traffic and vehicle profile, lane assistant, voice guidance, integrated worldwide base map, pre-installed detailed map of Europe plus USB and BlueTooth interface. Well suited for all kinds of vehicles, particularly trucks and motorhomes, but also suitable as hand held device.

The GARMIN Dezl 560 provides very fast automatic route calculation and route optimization by reordering via-points of routes with multiple intermediate destinations. It provides visual and voice guidance and the lane assistant indicates the correct path in great detail if there are multiple lanes. This GPS supports different vehicle types (automobile, truck, RV (motorhome) and pedestrian) and optimizes the calculated route based on length, width, height and weight. The Dezl 560 has a large, easy to read color display with touchscreen, an extremely sensitive antenna, an integrated world map (overview) plus a base map of Europe, Africa and the near East. It has a multi-lingual user interface and is easy to use via the touchscreen. The Dezl 560 has 7.31 GB built-in memory to store the pre-installed, detailed map of all of Europe with even more information, such as local roads, restaurants and points of interest. There are approx. 3.66 GB of unused memory to store other data such as waypoints, pictures or additional maps. This model also has a speech computer to announce the names of the roads. The package also includes a TMC receiver to incorporate traffic news.
The Dezl 560 is equipped with a BlueTooth interface to communicate with mobile phones which have the required communication capabilities in order to call car rental offices, hotels, restaurants etc. whose phone numbers are stored on the GPS with a single touch on the screen. It can also act as a hands-free extension set to the phones. Finally, the Dezl 560 has a slot for an optional microSD memory module to store additional detailed maps or images.

An alternate spelling is GARMIN Dēzl 560.

Routing speed: 10.39 (see GPS Routing Speed for details).
Route calculation based on vehicle type. Supports multiple vehicle profiles. Each profile includes length, width, height and weight of the vehicle. There are profiles for cars, trucks, RVs (motorhomes) and pedestrian. The Dezl calculates the route based on the profile and avoids roads which are not suitable for the vehicle with the active profile.
FM traffic news receiver included. Receives and processes traffic news messages broadcasted by radio stations. If the GPS receives a message about a traffic jam, blocked road etc. along the planned route, it can automatically compute a detour. Traffic news messages are broadcasted by many radio stations in various European countries including Austria, France, Germany, Italy and Switzerland. These messages are broadcasted for free and do not require any subscriptions. The TMC receiver works independent from the car radio and finds stations with traffic news messages automatically.
trafficTrends and myTrends. Analyses frequently traveled routes and records driving behavior. The GPS "learns" to avoid certain roads during rush hours and automatically recognizes destinations visited often.
Driving logs, records hours of operation and indicates, when it is time to take a break.
ecoRoute, provides information about fuel consumption and carbon footprint, findest the most ecological route.
