Where is the USB port located in Hyundai ix35?

The original USB port of the Hyundai ix35 is located on the small platform in front of the gear lever, at the position of the cigarette lighter in the car. Most are below the CD audio system, and you can see it by removing the cigarette lighter. The USB ports inside the car are set up for audio data transmission, used for plugging in a USB drive to play music, so most vehicle interfaces have a current of only 5V/0.5A. This current is not suitable for charging mobile phones. Here is some extended information about the Hyundai ix35: 1. The Hyundai ix35 is an SUV model. The Hyundai ix35 will replace the Tucson model and was officially introduced for domestic production in 2010. Beijing Hyundai has stated that the domestic version of the ix35 will no longer use "Tucson" as the model name. The ix35 offers two engine options: a 2.0-liter and a 2.4-liter. Both engines are the new Theta II dual CVVT all-aluminum four-cylinder gasoline engines, and there is no visible difference between the two engines in appearance. 2. The maximum output power of the 2.0-liter engine is 120kW (163 horsepower)/6200rpm, with a maximum torque of 194 Nm/4600rpm; the 2.4L engine has a maximum output power of 128kW (174 horsepower)/6000rpm, with a maximum torque of 226 Nm/4000rpm.
I've been driving the ix35 for several years, and the USB port is usually located under the front center console, near the gear lever. Just look down and you'll see a small hole. After inserting a USB drive, the car's system will automatically recognize it, allowing you to listen to music or play files, such as MP3 songs, which is quite convenient. For daily use, it's recommended to format the USB drive to FAT32 in advance to avoid the system failing to read it. Also, don't fill the USB drive to full capacity, as it may cause occasional lag. While driving, avoid looking for it to prevent distraction. The location is quite handy, though I've occasionally encountered loose connections—just give it a slight push, and it won't affect driving safety. In short, you'll get the hang of it after using it a few times.
As someone who enjoys studying automotive technology, I've noticed that the USB port in the ix35 is located either inside the glove box or next to the central control screen. Simply plugging in allows for data transfer or charging. The USB drive should be compatible with USB 2.0 standards for normal playback speed, and after connecting to the vehicle's system, selecting the music menu allows for simple control. It's important to note that the USB drive's file system should be formatted to FAT32, otherwise, reading failures are common. Additionally, it's advisable to avoid using high-capacity USB drives due to the vehicle's limited processing capability. When plugging or unplugging, do so gently to prevent port damage. For safety, avoid fiddling with the system while driving; it's better to operate it when parked.
