The design of the cup holder and storage compartment has been developed to ensure easy access to drinks without taking your eyes off the road. The edges and lines of the panel are matched to the factory shape of the console, which minimizes the risk of looseness and unwanted noises while driving.

• Well-thought-out placement of cup holders within reach of the driver and passenger.
• Built-in storage space for small accessories, such as keys or cards.
• Black finish, matched to typical BMW interior configurations.

Thanks to this design, the panel improves the functionality of the centre console while maintaining the orderly cockpit layout characteristic of BMW.

Benefits of using an original BMW cup holder
