iPhone 15 to car audio: BlueTooth or USB port?

I understand I can get a USB A to USB C cable to play music from my iPhone 15 through my car audio. The car also has BlueTooth. Which is better?

Also, would the iPhone charging system have a problem with a cable connection to car audio?

iPhone 15 Pro

iPad Pro 11" 3rd generation use with car AUX port that supports audio input I have an iPad Pro 11", 3rd generation. My car has two different kinds of ports: USB charging ports and a port that is an AUX port that supports audio input I also have a XS Max iPhone and an older iPad Air. Both of these devices use USB to lightning cables. I have 4 braided, USB to lightning cables I've been using to charge the older iPad and XS Max iPhone in the car. The cables do support audio when I plug the XS Max iPhone into the car's AUX port. I can play iTunes songs and don't have to use Bluetooth. (I use Bluetooth with my Garmin) QUESTION: How can I use my current lightning to USB cables with my new iPad Pro that has USB-C port so I don't have to buy all new cables for the car? The car's ports are regular USB ports. I would like to charge the iPad in the car AND also use the AUX port to play songs. Can I buy an adapter that would be lightning female to USB-C male (lightning female goes over the lighting end of my current braided cable; USB-C male goes into iPad Or, do I need to buy all new cables that are USB male to USB-C male (USB goes into car's port; USB-C goes into new iPad Pro
