Looking for a multi USB car charger which will also charge an iPod Classic 160GB

Hi all

I will soon be doing a lot of travelling and so have been looking for a good quality USB hub that you plug into the car's cigarette lighter.  I found a few on Amazon that got good reviews, but they said they are not compatible with the iPod Classic.  Not sure why.  But that's one of the devices I'll need to charge amongst others. 

So does anyone have or know of something that they could recommend?

Many thanks :)

This one has always been one of my favorites, because it mounts flush:

Your iPod should detect it as an A/C wall charger and charge as fast as it can, but don't take my word for it. I don't own any Apple Devices.

Also Note that this doesn't support the "QuickCharge 2.0 or 3.0" spec of some phones. For that you need something like this:

But I have not found one that is both flush and multi-port. Also note that while flush looks better, it's not ideal if you plan to disconnect the charger itself frequently.

EDIT:

It appears there's also an aluminum version:
