-
Build Variations: Depending on the exact version you choose (such as the standard model or the PowerDrive 2 Alloy), it features either a durable matte finish or a scratch-resistant aluminum alloy metal shell that blends cleanly into luxury vehicle interiors.
-
LED Indicator: A subtle, soft LED light rings or highlights the ports, making it effortless to plug in your cables during nighttime driving without being blindingly bright.
