Charging with 12V 100W cigarette adapter

I am considering buying one of these 12V chargers that pumps out up to 100W to charge my 2021 14” MacBook Pro

The MBP has a 96W transformer which feeds a USB C lead straight to MagSafe.

What are the likely risks of using this cigarette charger as a replacement for the Apple transformer when in the car?

I currently use an inverter. Been doing that for over 20 years. Never a problem. They are not exactly toss in one's pocket small.

A while back I also took an interest in the usb c chargers. Out of curiosity I searched Amazon for a 5 star product. Fakespot rated it a D. The next 2 were discontinued (think about Amazon discontinuing a crappy product). Looking for one offered by a company name I’d ever heard of came up empty. And we want to plug a $2,000+ laptop into it. With the other end plugged into a $30,000+ car.

do you need the whole 96W? what are you planning to do in a car with MBP? There is Anker PowerDrive+ III Duo USB-C car charger that does 50W Power Delivery
