USB Car Charger Safely Charges 2 Mobile Devices in Your Vehicle Simultaneously
This three-port USB car charger with Power Delivery (PD) 3.0 and Quick Charge (QC) 3.0 technology lets you quickly and safely charge two USB mobile devices at the same time. You and a passenger can connect your smartphones, tablets, notebooks or power banks, to name just a few compatible devices, to ensure satisfactory battery charge when you reach your destination. You can use either both USB-A ports simultaneously or one USB-A port with the USB-C port.
A Combined 36W of Charging Power Feeds Your Power-Hungry Devices
When any two of them are used together, the USB-C PD 3.0 and USB-A QC 3.0 ports support up to 36W of charging power and automatically adjust to the power level most appropriate for each connected device. The fast-charging USB-C port, when used alone, provides up to 18W (5V 3A or 9V 2A) to keep your USB-C devices at capacity. The dual 18W USB-A ports adjust to a proper power level (5V 3A, 9V 2A or 12V 1.5A) to provide as much charge as your QC-compliant devices’ batteries can handle.
Plugs into the 12V DC Power Outlet in Your Vehicle
The compact charger connects to any standard 12V DC vehicle power outlet, such as the one on your dashboard. Just plug it in, and connect your devices’ USB cables for fast, convenient mobile charging. An easy-to-see LED indicates the charger is receiving power. The U280-C03-36W-1B is compatible with Apple (including iPhone), Android (including Samsung), Windows and Amazon devices with USB-A, USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 charging ports.

Questions & Answers
It depends on the make and model of your car. Some cars require the keys to be in the ignition and turned to "On" or "Acc" for the power point (cigarette lighter) to provide power to the USB charger. Other cars may continue to supply power to the cigarette lighter even if the engine is turned off. To be sure, turn your vehicle off and see if your phone or tablet continues to charge. Important: if your vehicle does supply power to the cigarette lighter when the engine is turned off, do not leave your device charging for an extended period of time to avoid draining your battery.

In practical terms, yes. Older cars have cigarette lighter sockets that can power your electronics. More modern cars have 12V DC Auxiliary Power Outlets that power electronics but should NOT be used with a cigarette lighter. You can use an accessory plug with either an old or new outlet.
You can read more about the standard (SAE J563_200902) governing Auxiliary Power Outlets on the Society of Automobile Engineers (SAE) website.
