The USB port in the XC60 is located towards the rear inside the center armrest. Additional information about car USB drives is as follows: 1. Required format: The car USB drive needs to be formatted in the FAT32 file system. While computers may support other formats, external devices in cars only support the FAT32 file system. 2. FAT format: Car USB drives are related to format (both USB format and music format). Format the USB drive to FAT format, then try putting different music formats (MP3 format is universally supported).

I've been driving a Volvo XC60 for several years, and the USB port is located inside the front center armrest. Just lift the small cover to find it—designed to be discreet yet practical, keeping cables tidy and maintaining a clean look. Plugging in a USB drive allows direct playback of music or navigation files, which is incredibly convenient, especially on long trips, saving a lot of hassle. If you can't find it at first, you can check the in-car system guide or the owner's manual for a diagram. Remember to choose the right USB format; FAT32 has strong compatibility, and avoid using excessively large capacities to prevent slow reading. When using it, avoid plugging or unplugging while driving—find a safe spot to park first to ensure full attention on the road. The placement is quite user-friendly, making it easy to clean and preventing dust buildup that could affect connectivity.

If you want to locate the USB ports yourself, just open the small storage compartment under the center console – I've tried it several times and they're always on the left side. Shine a flashlight to see clearly; there are usually two USB-C ports on the side. If there's no response when plugged in, try switching flash drives or cables to troubleshoot instead of rushing to remove trim panels. The XC60's layout is clean and more user-friendly compared to older models. Modifications might change their position, but the factory design hides them to protect the ports from damage. Daily maintenance is simple – regularly clean the ports to prevent dust interference and improve playback stability.

The USB connection location in the XC60 is crucial for safety, which is why it's designed inside the front armrest box. Always stop the vehicle to handle connections to avoid distractions and accidents. The port is easily accessible by lifting the cover, offering a discreet yet convenient position. Before use, ensure the USB drive is correctly formatted to prevent reading errors, and regularly check for loose connections to maintain reliability.
