With the lack of infotainment inside the truck relying on your phone for everything will there be a charging port to charge phone inside the truck ? Cant seem to find a way to charge your phone inside the truck unless the phone holder also doubles as a wireless charger. If thats the case I would assume the only way you can charge your phone would be to carry power banks which would be quite annoying .

There was a close up in a video I watched that shows a charger built into the phone holder

Yep, there's a wired phone charger built into the factory phone / tablet holder:

And a wire leads from it to a power plug behind the dash panels (seen here).
