Does the 2021 Boyue not have a cigarette lighter?
2 Answers
2021 Boyue does not come with a cigarette lighter and requires self-installation. Method for installing a cigarette lighter: First, locate the cigarette lighter interface inside the car. Some cigarette lighter sockets have USB outputs, some directly split into multiple cigarette lighter ports, and some resemble household power sockets. Therefore, when selecting a cigarette lighter socket product, pay close attention to the interface. Connect a wire from the car's AC line, then connect a fuse, followed by the positive terminal of the cigarette lighter, and finally ground the negative terminal to the car body. Function of the cigarette lighter: A cigarette lighter socket is an electronic device similar to a multi-outlet household power strip. It connects to the car's power source via a plug and provides multiple cigarette lighter ports. It can be used for car universal chargers, car inverters, car heating cups, car vacuum cleaners, car coffee makers, car air pumps, and cigarette lighter decorative accessories.
Last time I drove my friend's 2021 Boyue, I noticed it indeed had a power socket in the car, but unlike older cars, it didn't come with a built-in cigarette lighter head. If you want to smoke or need power, you have to buy a small adapter to plug in. This socket is super practical—I often use it to charge my phone or navigation devices, saving the hassle of carrying a power bank. Many new cars are designed this way now, probably to promote healthier habits, like smoking less in the car or directly supporting digital devices. When buying an adapter, make sure the power rating matches to avoid damaging the wiring—it only costs a few dozen yuan. Regularly check if the socket is loose or dirty; keeping it clean can extend its lifespan and ensure stable, safe power while driving.
