I just purchased a 16 Plus, I have a 2019 Subaru Forester. The cord for the new phone doesn’t fit the USB port. In looking online, I need a USB-A to USB - C cord - but I can’t find one that Apple makes; just third party ones. Shouldn’t Apple solve this problem; I upgrade my phone more often than my car!
iPhone 16 Plus, iOS 18
