Well, I was planning on buying the new electric van they have, but this article has changed my mind. Same reason I won’t buy a Tesla or any other company that hides features of a fully purchased car behind a paywall. Fuck that mess and I will never support it.
My husband and I had looked at VW as one of their cars matched our criteria. When we went to look at it I was like “what do you mean this car only has 1 cup holder!!!” Like that wasn’t even on our list of needs to consider because… You know… I assumed every car had at least 2.
Yeah, honestly I will never own a German car again. They are way over engineered while also lacking the creature comforts i expect as an American. My 20 year old beetle has 2 cup holders, but they are underneath the radio and can’t hold anything wider than a soda can, and only have about 8 inches of clearance.
Europoor here, we never used the cup holder for holding cups in my life time.
The only acceptable usage was throwing coins that you don’t know where to put, usually for paying the motorway tolls in France (but this has also disappeared in favor of cards).
But on the same cultural differences, I bet I’ve seen the cigarette lighter and ashtray being more used than you had (during the 80 and 90s when cars still had them).
On a long American commute, you gotta have a large coffee so sip on. In fact, anytime i am in a car longee than 30 minutes i feel like i NEED a coffee or a drink. It’s a pavlovian response at this point.

I don’t know why they made a minivan with only two cup holders.

It’s like having pants with only one pocket!
