Where is the USB port in the 2020 Passat?

2020 SAIC Volkswagen Passat USB port specific locations are as follows: 1. Passat USB port locations: Distributed in the front and rear rows of the vehicle. One of the front USB ports is located at the lower right of the center control screen, and the other is distributed in the storage space below the air conditioning adjustment area, which is relatively hidden. The rear USB port is located below the rear air vent. 2. USB port locations in the vehicle: There are generally two classifications, one can transmit data and charge, while the other can only charge and cannot transmit data. Carefully observe the markings near the USB port to distinguish the corresponding function of the port.
When I used the 2020 Passat, the USB ports were mainly located inside the center armrest. As soon as you lifted the lid, you could directly see two USB ports placed there—one for charging your phone and the other connected to CarPlay for playing music or navigation. The positioning was quite user-friendly; you didn’t need to bend over or fumble around while driving—just reach out and plug in the cable. I got used to it over time, with the ports positioned toward the rear-middle section of the armrest, and never had any issues. Some configurations might have USB ports inside the storage compartment at the front of the center console, varying by model. Over time, USB ports can accumulate dust, so it’s recommended to clean them occasionally to maintain smooth connections and avoid poor contact affecting charging speed.
