My car has a little compartment between the shift lever and the phone charging pad. It even has a little flip-up door. What is it designed to hold? It's too small for my wallet, wrong shape for a USB cable. 🤷‍♂️

In Europe they put an ashtray in there - can put change in there or when open it will hold your phone in a stand up position.

Hey Azemon, is that the one above the phone charger? It looks like a credit card holder. Hidden so it is out of view from would be thief.

I believe it’s for the key FOB

Too funny! I'm definitely "of an age" to have owned many many cars with ashtrays. But it's been so long since I have been in a car with anyone who smokes that I had completely put ashtrays out of mind.

Ashtray. But way too small for my cigars

I'm trying to teach myself to keep the key in the pocket so that I dont hop out of the car and leave the key in it. I still reach for my keys as i come up to the car

lol and where the 12 v charging point is was actually a cigarette lighter and as a kid quickly learnt how hot they get!!!

I keep the screen cleaning cloth in there. Fits well and is readily available when I need to wipe the screen.

When there is a cigarette lighter fitted in the car there is a detachable ashtray in the tunnel console.

It's an ashtray. Volvo even has instructions on how to remove and empty it.

It seems even too small for 🚬 because of the odd shape.

Thanks Jim, I didn't think of that!
