I'm just an ordinary driver who often uses a USB drive to play music in the car. The connection is simple: First, take a USB drive and format it to FAT32 on your computer—avoid NTFS as the car might not recognize it. Load it with MP3 or WAV format music files, and don’t store too many miscellaneous files. Before getting in the car, locate the USB port, usually found on the center console or in the storage compartment, and insert the drive securely. After starting the car, press the media button on the center console and select the USB or external device source. The music will start playing automatically, which is quite convenient. If there’s no response, check if the USB drive is properly inserted or restart the car’s infotainment system. Regularly clean up old songs from the USB drive to avoid overloading it and affecting performance. Beginners should try this while parked to avoid distractions while driving.
