When I select “satellite” view on the Sat-Nav,
which requires connection via SIM card, does anybody know how much 3G data is consumed? Was wondering if I have this selected over a long drive, if I’m likely to race through the data allowance on the SIM card, or if it is negligible?

Yes, I’ve got a “Three” SIM card installed and they’re apparently switching off 3G by 2024 😔. I guess no connectivity features at all after that, unless aftermarket produces a 4/5G enabled receiver. L405 2017 TDV6 AB

I wouldn’t worry about the switch off for a few years yet.
They said the same about 2G , years ago and how long did it take them to switch off 405 line TV over 20 years!!

Here are the timelines for each network switching off 3G:

Vodafone is starting its switch-off in early 2023.
EE plans to start its switch-off in early 2024.
Three expects to switch-off by the end of 2024.
O2 has not yet announced any switch-off plans.

But As BB states the dates could and will likely move, 2G switch off has been moved back until 2033. 2021 P400 Silicon Silver AB

I have had a SIM in my 2017 Vogue AB for a few months now with the satelite mode always on. Looking at the data usage seems to be 400-500mb per month. I just have a cheap data plan of 1.5GB and seems to be fine.
