Where is the USB port on the Audi A5?
2 Answers
The Audi A5 has two USB ports, one in the center console and one in the armrest. The USB port is part of the vehicle's transmission line. Here is more information about the USB port: 1. Main function of the USB port: It uses the standard power supply in the car to charge DC-5V electrical devices via the USB interface or serves as a fixed power interface for electrical devices. 2. Uses of the car USB port: Inserting a USB drive to listen to music, charging mobile phones and MP3 players, serving as a USB car cigarette lighter interface, functioning as an interface for radar detectors and dashcams, and charging laptops and tablets.
In the Audi A5, the USB port is typically located inside the front center armrest. That's how I use it—just open the armrest, and you'll find it on the inner wall or at the bottom. It's a very convenient placement. The design considers daily practicality, such as preventing cable tangles while charging, and it’s also easy to connect your phone for music. The location may vary by model year—my 2017 model has it here, but newer versions like the 2020 and above might have the port moved to the small storage compartment below the center console, near the cigarette lighter. If you can’t find it, I recommend checking the armrest area first and searching inside. If it’s not there, look around the central control area between the front seats—spots with small covers often hold surprises. It works great for CarPlay navigation or charging without hassle. For significant model variations, referring to the owner's manual diagrams is the safest bet to avoid confusion.
