Really!

 

Yes, Taha1212's original post is not very clear but perhaps English is not his/her first language. Maybe we can hold back on the humorous comments so that he/she will feel comfortable trying again so that we may be of help? Just my two cents.

 

Sounds like his sd nav card was stolen from his ES. Not sure how any of us can assist with that. I didn't even know there was a card in there.

 

I thought that the maps were downloaded at the dealer in the newer cars...

 

I read through the manual and nothing mention about the SD Card. Something interesting....

 

There is an SD card. The SD card contains the maps, and it has to be keyed to the vehicle in order to be compatible.

The dealer can order a new SD card and install it. Gonna be expensive though, $400 or so, $1,000 is way too much.

 

I believe that the Generation 10 navigation system in the 2019 and 2020 ES uses "live maps" where the source of the map information is in the cloud, and the map data is continuously updated with new data from the cloud. When the information is sent from the cloud to the car, I assume that it is stored in the car on an SD card, but I'm not certain of that.

As an aside, with the trend in the auto industry to subscription-based services, I expect that, at some point in the future, Lexus will be requiring a paid subscription to be able use the "live maps" feature.

 

That's my understanding, too.

I don't see any reason for the 2019/2020 ES to have any kind of removable hardware for map data. There's probably RAM or some other type of nonremovable memory built into the system.
