12V socket always on?

I plugged my dashcam into the lighter socket and when I shut the car off it went into parking mode. I thought it's switched?

In my old BMW, the 12v socket stayed on for about 10 minutes after the car shut off. Probably same thing here.

12V accessory takes 13 minutes after closing all doors/trunk and engine off to turn off.
