Abstract
Systems of an electrical vehicle and the operations thereof are provided. A powered accessory port may be utilized to selectively reveal/conceal an interior portion, such as charging connection when the powered accessory port is disposed on the exterior of a vehicle, or a user device connection, such as when the powered accessory port is disposed in the interior of the vehicle. The powered accessory port, when energized, provides a rotational force that is partially translated into a longitudinal force such that the single rotational force provides both a lifting (or lowering) motion as well as a rotational motion.
