◼ USB Charging for Car Rental and Carsharing: Vandal-Resistant Sockets for Hire Vehicles
Dekart's flush-fit USB chargers for car rental and carsharing vehicles are built for the daily grind of hire fleets. In carsharing, the customer's phone is the main link — it's how they unlock the car and follow the navigation. Dekart sockets guarantee that a customer can quickly top up their phone and stay connected for the whole trip. The units run off a 12V–24V DC onboard supply and suit any car or light commercial vehicle.
Every piece of transport electrics we make passes strict factory control. These chargers shrug off wear, constant vibration and voltage swings. Our catalogue covers every model of Dekart transport USB charger for commercial fleets.

Why a standard cigarette lighter won't cut it in carsharing
Ordinary plug-in cigarette lighter adapters get lost, broken or pocketed by less-than-honest renters. Dekart flush-fit USB sockets solve the problem entirely. The charging module is mounted straight into the console or dashboard, replacing the standard lighter. Getting it out without stripping the whole front panel is impossible. That keeps fleet equipment safe.
Cigarette lighters also often deliver unstable current. Dekart chargers smooth out onboard supply ripple and deliver clean 5V (or dial in the right power for fast charging), protecting your customers' device batteries.
Convenience for driver and passengers
The modules have two independent ports. The driver can power a sat-nav or their own phone, while the passenger charges a tablet or a second gadget. The units recognise whatever is plugged in and deliver safe current automatically.
For rental fleets, kitting out the whole cabin makes sense too. For rear-seat passengers, a dedicated USB socket for taxis and hire cars is a great pick — it can go on the console between the seats.
Extra options for commercial fleets
Alongside USB chargers, the Dekart catalogue includes ready-made media solutions for passenger transport. You can fit headrests with built-in screens and tablets. That lifts the level of service and opens the door to advertising or in-trip entertainment revenue.
For fast fitting and a firm hold in the cabin, we supply tough holders and mounting panels for USB chargers. If you want to refit your service vehicles, take a look at our solutions for public transport and rental fleets.
