Hyundai dumps cigarette lighter socket for USB port in Korea

May be I'm wrong, but the capacity of a regular USB port is only upto 5V. So, unless Hyundai plans to design some 'poweredUSB', the utility of these sockets will be limited. Even then, will the new USB ports comply with the existing dimensions? If not, we are going to end up new set of chargers! Hyundai defintely has some tricks up its sleeves to bring out such 'radical' changes. But I still am unable to imagine the sight of charging a laptop through a USB port
