Detailed overview: Ugreen 52.5W USB-C car charger
The Ugreen 52.5W car charger is a compact two-port cigarette lighter adapter, designed to quickly charge two devices at once on the road. It complements the Ugreen car charger range alongside the 63W model, with a smaller footprint, slightly lower power and no built-in cable.
Its USB-C port delivers up to 30W with Power Delivery 3.0, with support for the PPS protocol for finer, faster charging on compatible smartphones. That's enough to fast-charge a recent iPhone, a tablet or a pair of earbuds without waiting. The second port, a USB-A, reaches up to 22.5W thanks to Quick Charge 3.0 and SCP, to power the passenger's phone or an Android device at the same time. Both ports can run simultaneously, for a combined output of 52.5W shared between the two connected devices.
On the design side, the aluminium body stays compact (65 x 30 x 30 mm for 57 grams) and plugs directly into the vehicle's cigarette lighter socket, compatible with a 12 to 24V input (car, truck or motorhome). Ugreen has built in five internal protections against overvoltage, overcurrent, overheating, short-circuit and overcharging, to protect both the charger and the connected devices over time.
This charger has no built-in or retractable cable: you need to bring your own USB-C or USB-A cable depending on the device you're charging, worth knowing before buying, unlike other Ugreen models fitted with a built-in cable such as the retractable Nexode versions. In exchange, its simple format, compatibility with cables you may already own and its affordable price make it a practical choice for anyone who mainly wants two reliable fast-charging ports in the car.
With fast charging on both ports, protected design and Ugreen's well-known reliability, this 52.5W cigarette lighter charger is a solid travel companion for keeping a smartphone, tablet or GPS charged on the road, whether travelling solo or with a passenger, without compromising on charging speed.

Comparison
Under £25 and around 50W, the Ugreen 52.5W car charger competes with several widely searched rivals, notably through queries like "Ugreen 52.5W vs Anker 323" or "cheap USB-C USB-A car charger". Here's how it compares with three direct alternatives: the Anker 323, at the exact same 52.5W power; the Baseus Square CCALL-AS01, a simpler and less powerful model; and the INIU 60W 2-Port, one of the best-selling car chargers on Amazon.
| Criterion | Ugreen 52.5W | Anker 323 | Baseus Square CCALL-AS01 | INIU 60W 2-Port |

| Observed price | £10.79 | £17.11 | £16.13 | £8.55 |
Overall, the Ugreen 52.5W car charger stands out for having by far the most verified reviews in this comparison, a real sign of long-term reliability, and for supporting both PPS and SCP simultaneously on its two ports, a real plus for actual charging speed on compatible devices. The Anker 323 matches its power but remains far less proven with much fewer reviews, the Baseus Square settles for 30W, and the INIU 60W wins mainly on price, without the same advanced protocols or track record.

Our tester's review: Christophe Delpuech
On the motorway or around town, this small Ugreen charger quietly does its job. The USB-C port charges the phone noticeably faster than a basic cigarette lighter charger, and the USB-A port keeps the passenger's phone topped up at the same time without slowing down. The aluminium body feels solid in hand, doesn't run unusually hot and stays discreet once plugged in. One thing to note: no cable is included in the box, so you'll need your own good-quality USB-C or USB-A cable, otherwise you won't get the full 30W. For everyday use in the car, with decent cables already on hand, it's a solid, no-surprises choice.
Frequently asked questions: Ugreen 52.5W USB-C car charger
No, this charger doesn't include any cable: you'll need your own fast-charging USB-C or USB-A cable to get the full 30W (USB-C) or 22.5W (USB-A).
Yes. The USB-C port delivers up to 30W and the USB-A port up to 22.5W, for a combined output of 52.5W shared between the two devices plugged in at once.
The 63W model offers more power on the USB-C port (45W versus 30W here) and suits a USB-C laptop better. This 52.5W model stays a more compact choice for smartphones and tablets.
Yes. The USB-C Power Delivery port fast-charges recent iPhones with a suitable USB-C cable, and the USB-A port suits older models or a second device.
