I travel for work and thus rent a lot of cars. Can confirm there are far too many options. What's worse is that new cars don't have an option for the USB to type C. It's just type C to C, which is a cord that almost no one owns. Why not have both in the cars!! Bur yeah the new cars all do something a bit different in annoying ways.
FYI: My favorite vehicles. 1 Honda Civic, 2 Kia Soul.
Why have both in cars? A car is expected to last 10, 15 years at least and C to C is already starting to become the new standard. I feel like if you buy a car, you can probably buy a phone cord for it...
This. Type C has been getting very popular since around 2016. Every phones cord is type C for few years now. Personallt I wish to never see the USB A type port again in antthing I purchase. Especially an expensive car. It is obsolete tech.
Thats true. But does your phones connectivity with a car matter at all if it isnt ”smart”?
You can't even spell basic words and you're here giving people life advice?
You do realize that smartphone keyboards are fairly small and this isnt that serious of a forum to proof read for typos while sitting on a toilet? :D
