I have recently (happily) returned to the Skoda brand & I am loving my Karoq TSi DSG. It has the USB type C connection by the rear view mirror & I opted for a Road Angel 4k Halo dash cam, no screen to distract & quite neat when fitted. I'm not too bothered about parking mode etc. The USB by the mirror is only on with the engine running / ignition on. Initially it would not work as the port delivers too much power. Off I went investigating. It appears that the USB type C setup is ambidextrous & because of that everything is duplicated, therefore you get double the power, as in when I charge my phone at home it tells me it's 'turbo charging'. My work around this was to use a 90° USB male Type C plug to a USN type A female adapter, to a USB type A / type C lead into my dash cam. It now works just fine.
