What is a "cup holder"?
A cup holder is a small compartment or space in a vehicle designed to hold cups, bottles, or other drink containers securely while driving. It is often located in the center console, door panels, or between the seats for easy access. Cup holders help prevent drinks from spilling during travel by providing a stable spot to place them. Many vehicles have multiple cup holders to accommodate both the driver and passengers.
Examples
I always put my coffee in the cup holder when I drive to work.
