Default 2026 Touring Models (Navigation)

As I understand it, the 26 touring models are coming with navigation built in. Anyone know if traffic and weather will be included and how many years are provided when purchasing a new ride?

In the 2 Limited models navigation is embedded, no need for renewals. As far as traffic and weather, I don't know.

I believe it's 3 years of map updates. Traffic and weather are available if you have 5G phone connected.
Here's the info from the description on HD site.
Includes Skyline™ OS Embedded Navigation Cloud updates of maps, traffic, and weather for three years

According to the owner’s manual for the limiteds, a phone hotspot can be connected via WiFi to provide weather and traffic.

I was talking to a salesman about this yesterday and he mentioned a one-time $349 charge for 3 years of service. It was funny because I had mentioned under my breath that it would probably be $400 and it caught him off guard a bit. The way he made it sound, you have to have an active subscription just to use the features at all, so it made me wonder what it costs after the 3 years.

For $349 you get your Nav activated and three years of updates, my understanding - in three years updates stop (unless renewed, I guess) and you stuck with whatever maps you have, but Nav itself won't deactivate. We'll find out next year I guess.

Navigation comes included on the CVO"s. Not sure about the ST's.
It is also only for 3 years from original date of sale, at least on my 23.5 and 24 RG CVO.

Thank you for clarifying, I'm glad NAV functionality remains, at least. BMW and Toyota were toying with some of the pay-to-play subscriptions with their heated seats, remote start, etc. I was hoping HD wasn't jumping in on the action.
