Where is the USB port on the new Volkswagen Santana?
2 Answers
The USB port on the new Volkswagen Santana is located under the center console panel. The in-car USB can be used to read USB drive information for the car entertainment system and charge mobile phones, among other functions. However, due to power limitations, the charging speed is not very high. More extended information is as follows: 1. Exterior: The new Santana already features the current standard design style of Volkswagen's three-box sedan, whether it's the front face or the waistline curves. Its front face design can even be said to have a 'Shanghai Volkswagen style.' Real wood interiors are only available in high-end models, and the steering wheel follows the popular style common in the Volkswagen family. 2. A05+ Platform: It adopts Volkswagen's latest A05+ platform. A05 refers to the fifth-generation platform of Volkswagen's A0-class models, and the '+' symbol represents an enhanced version of the platform, with the enhancement mainly focusing on increased dimensions. 3. Powertrain: It uses Volkswagen's latest EA211 series, including a 1.6L EA211 engine, and another 1.4L engine also based on the EA211 will be introduced. 3. Configuration: The Santana successor will offer up to 9 optional packages. These include side airbags, curtain airbags, dual-zone air conditioning, a multifunction steering wheel, seat heating, and ESP body stability system, among others.
I remember the first time I drove the new Volkswagen Santana, the USB port was right there in the small storage compartment on the front center console. While driving, I could easily plug in the cable with just a touch, making it super convenient for charging or connecting my phone to listen to music. The placement was quite thoughtful, preventing any distraction while driving as I didn’t have to fumble around. I should remind you, though, that it’s a standard USB-A port, so you might need an adapter for newer phones. I usually use it to connect CarPlay for navigation and music, and the experience has been great. Occasionally, if the connection feels loose, I just check if there’s dust in the port and clean it out. Overall, it’s incredibly easy to find—just a bit to the right of the steering wheel.
