I just picked up a Golf 8 and noticed the USB port is right there on the center console. To be specific, there's a USB-C port located below the infotainment screen in the center console area, near the gear shift lever, which makes it super convenient to plug in a USB drive for music or data transfer. I remember fumbling around the first time I tried to use it, thinking it might be in the glove box—turns out I was wrong. It's best to format your USB drive to FAT32, otherwise the car's system might not recognize it. Playing some tunes while driving is really enjoyable, but avoid loading overly large files to prevent lag that could ruin the mood. The Golf 8's port placement is quite user-friendly, allowing easy plug-and-play without distracting from driving. If you can't find it, check the owner's manual or ask the dealer instead of guessing—messing up the car's wiring would be a hassle. Overall, getting familiar with these small details in a new car makes the journey much more relaxed and enjoyable.
