How many USB ports does the Trumpchi GS5 have?
2 Answers
The Trumpchi GS5 has two USB ports, one located next to the cigarette lighter and another in the rear row. Higher-end models only have one. The USB ports can utilize the vehicle's standard power supply to charge electronic devices via USB or serve as fixed power interfaces for electrical appliances. USB ports are part of the vehicle's transmission line, offering advantages such as fast transmission speeds, ease of use, hot-swappable support, flexible connectivity, and independent power supply. Precautions for using USB ports: 1. Charging when the engine is running: Charging should only be done when the vehicle's engine is running to avoid damaging the power converter due to unstable power supply. 2. Avoid connecting too many devices: Excessive load can damage the car battery and alternator. 3. Avoid usage during thunderstorms: To prevent lightning strike incidents. 4. Avoid using USB ports in humid environments: Rust or water stains may cause the USB drive to fail to connect properly.
I remember when I drove the GAC GS5, there was only one USB port in the front row, located under the center console, which was convenient for plugging in a phone to charge or connect to CarPlay for music. It was quite handy for daily use, especially during long drives when I could navigate and charge simultaneously without needing an extra charger. The only downside was that it wasn’t very convenient for rear passengers to charge, so I often recommended friends to bring a USB hub to expand the ports for multiple devices. The USB port was Type-A, compatible with most phone cables, and the speed was decent for data transfer without lag. Regularly cleaning the port to avoid dust buildup helps extend its lifespan. Overall, the design felt simple and practical, well-suited for city driving.
