Does the old Bora have a USB interface?
2 Answers
The old Bora does not have a USB interface, but the new Bora has a USB interface. Here is some extended information: 1. Exterior Design: The new Bora adopts Volkswagen's family-style front face design, with distinct layers in the headlights and a wing-shaped design, giving it a strong three-dimensional feel. The rear design has changes in the outline and light clusters compared to the current model, and the body lines are also significantly different from the current Bora, becoming more streamlined. It also features a newly designed aluminum alloy wheel style. 2. Interior Changes: The new Bora uses the latest components in areas such as the steering wheel, instrument panel, and center console. Volkswagen's modular production method is indeed very successful, with multiple models using the same steering wheel, multimedia system, etc.
I remember the older Bora models from the early 2000s didn't have USB ports at all. The in-car technology was quite basic back then, relying mainly on cigarette lighters or AUX inputs for device connections. As an owner who's driven such cars for over a decade, I've always complained about the inconvenience—nowadays, using mobile navigation or music requires additional chargers. The solution is simple: buy a cigarette lighter to USB adapter, which costs just a few dozen yuan on Taobao, or install an aftermarket head unit with a USB module. However, professional auto repair shops should handle the installation to avoid circuit instability that might blow fuses. The old Bora has limited space, so wiring must be carefully routed to avoid blocking the dashboard. I also recommend using an FM transmitter as an alternative—the audio quality is slightly worse, but it offers better compatibility. Regular maintenance and checks on the cigarette lighter socket are essential to prevent aging and poor contact. In short, while the original car lacks this feature, upgrading it yourself can be quite enjoyable, but safety comes first—never attempt to dismantle wiring on your own.
