How many USB ports does the 2013 Cruze have?

[LeAdriel]

The 2013 Cruze has 1 USB port, located in the center console of the car. Below is a related introduction to the Cruze: 1. Overview: The Chevrolet Cruze is a next-generation model developed by General Motors with the goal of creating a benchmark in design and performance for compact cars, integrating global resources. It has been domestically produced and competes in the fiercely contested compact car market. 2. Powertrain: In terms of power, the new car continues to be equipped with 1.5L and 1.4T engines, with maximum power outputs of 114 horsepower and 150 horsepower respectively. For the transmission system, the 1.4T model is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission; the 1.5L model is matched with a 6-speed automatic transmission and a 6-speed manual transmission.

I've been driving this 2013 Cruze for almost ten years, and I can tell you for sure there's only one USB port in the center console. It's hidden in the small storage compartment below the air conditioning knobs, where you can plug in a data cable to connect your phone for music or charging. However, with today's power-hungry smartphones, one port just isn't enough. I later added a converter in the cigarette lighter to turn it into dual USB ports. This is one of those awkward things about older cars - when you need to charge and use navigation simultaneously, you have to unplug the music cable. It would be much more convenient if there was an additional port in the armrest like newer models. I recommend keeping a car charger handy, as the factory port has low current output - it charges slowly and tends to get hot.

Helped friends inspect several used Cruze models. Regardless of trim level, the 2013 version all come with a single USB port located on the center console to the right of the driver's seat. This port primarily supports audio input and phone charging, but with a maximum current of only 0.5A, charging modern smartphones feels like a drip feed. Interestingly, some modified car owners install a second port below the steering wheel, as the factory wiring harness actually reserves an expansion slot. A reminder to owners: prolonged use can cause port loosening. My own car experienced poor contact leading to Carplay disconnections, which was resolved by cleaning the metal contacts.

After studying the Cruze's configuration sheet, the 2013 model comes standard with a USB port across all trims. This interface is hidden under the cover in front of the gear shift lever and can be obstructed when using a phone mount. While not very practical as a charging port, it works well for playing music from your phone when paired with the AUX interface. Some car owners have reported occasional disconnections when connecting Android phones, which can be improved by upgrading the infotainment system. For charging multiple devices, it's recommended to use a cigarette lighter expansion dock, as the original USB port is primarily designed for data transfer rather than high-power charging.
