In our wide brown land, clear and reliable communication is essential. Australia’s leading manufacturer of communication and safety technology, GME, has just launched the next generation of its XRS Connect platform, raising the benchmark for UHF CB radios with smarter connectivity, improved audio performance and enhanced durability.

Designed and made in Australia, the new XRS range builds on the legacy of the original platform with a suite of major upgrades, including a powerful 3-watt speaker, a bright, easy-to-read colour TFT LCD screen designed for visibility in all conditions, built-in GPS, Bluetooth audio connectivity, advanced noise reduction and user-customisable controls.

The lineup includes models such as the super-compact XRS-335C and heavy-duty XRS-375C, offering solutions for everything from everyday touring setups to demanding commercial and fleet applications.

GME’s Group Marketing Manager, Tony Crooke, comments: “Whether you’re exploring remote tracks, towing a caravan across the country or coordinating teams on the job, reliable communication is non-negotiable.

“With the next generation of XRS Connect, we’ve taken everything Australians already love about the radios and made them smarter, clearer and more adaptable. From improved audio performance to enhanced connectivity and GPS capability, this range is designed to give users greater confidence wherever they’re operating.

From touring Australia’s toughest tracks to heading off-grid on road trips, the new XRS Connect range is available in Australia, with models including the XRS-335C (SRP $639) and XRS-375C (SRP $689).
