Apple Car Play - Which USB hub

I am getting ready to buy Apple car play for my 2016 Mazda cx-5 GT. They offer 3 different usb hubs. Anyone have any input which usb hub is better, the regular usb-a, usb-c, or the wireless hub.
Thanks Mark

Wired connections are generally better than wireless ones (no chance of interference or dropped connection).
USB-C has higher data transfer rates and can play lossless audio playback.

Ditto. I like wired as well. USB-C is best to go with.
