Greetings from Athens, Greece. my C-HR 2022 just arrived :)

Could someone please help with the below?

I noticed that there is only 1 USB port, but I would like to connect both my phone for Auto Play, and a USB for Music.

Would a dual USB Splitter do the job?

Thanks !

You can always try. But I seem to recall someone trying and it didn't work. This is one of the complaints I have about the car. It's targeted for the younger crowd yet only has ONE USB port? Come on Toyota. Even my 2013 BMW 135i has two USB ports.
I tried a small usb hub with 3 usb slots - did not work.
I think you best bet is to use your phone as your music storage source and have it play through there

This seems to be working well for me so far:
USB Hub, VENTION 4-Port USB 3.0 Hub Ultra-Slim Data USB Splitter Charging Supported Compatible with MacBook, Laptop, Surface Pro, PS4, PC, Flash Drive, Mobile HDD (0.5FT/0.15M) : Electronics (amazon.com)

Product Peripheral Font Gadget Cable


I located it here, using 3M double side tape on the bottom:
Personal luxury car Bumper Audio equipment Vehicle Gas


This works for me as for my use the cubby is basically useless as any sort of serious storage. My phone and my son's phone are too large to place in this space.
So where do I place my phone whilst driving? I'm sure glad you asked:

Product Camera accessory Cameras & optics Gadget Output device

Amazon.com: TOPGO Cup Phone Holder for Car, Cup Holder Phone Holder [Secure & Stable] Cup Holder Phone Mount Cell Phone Automobile Cradle for iPhone 13, Samsung and More Smart Phone -Black : Cell Phones & Accessories

Hope this helps and the product is available in your country. If I knew the aftermarket was so sparce for this car I might have reconsidered purchasing mine. This car is ripe for mods if ever there was a mod-able car. It already looks like a hot hatch out of the box.

I see more AM product for the Corolla. You mother's sensible Corolla! :LOL:

Unfortunately, this usb hub is not working with me in my 2023/4 CHR. CHR system lets the hub read usb disk, usb sticks and phone but not simultaneously.
