Recently driving in central London in my car was a nightmare due to roads changing.
I now only use google maps on my iPhone which have live updates, they use next to nothing data so don't be fooled into people telling you different.
If you plan the route using your home wifi, then it downloads the required maps for the routes it recommends to the device so you don't need to rely on a data connection when driving (same with Apple Maps if you haven't downloaded the offline maps for the country anyway - perfect for use in Europe without the additional data roaming charges). If it does use data during the trip it will be to check for delays, speed camera's etc that it gets from the other users on the same roads as you are on.

I'm not contesting that, it's the people that say it chews through data.
I've been using Waze the last few week and I really like it as it gives live traffic updates.
