My brain must sense 'fitment into a holder or not', as I haven't yet let go of a beverage during such futile reaches into thin air. I really like the front of the center console on the 3rd Gen, and the clearance it has under the dash. My new Yaris did come with a 1 USB 12v plug, but I ended up buying a 2 USB 12v plug at Wal-Mart for $12 something plus tax. I can now put a beverage in the right front cup holder, put a phone in the left cup holder, and another phone in the space behind those two holders. I use those really thin retractable USB cables with each phone...so I can now charge two phones at once with no fuss, plus hold a beverage, all without worrying about any of that falling out of where it has been placed.

I just noticed that with the way the center of the dash is designed in my 2014, the fitment/particular profile of the glove compartment, and my use of the spaghetti/retractable USB cables, I can charge both of those phones (mentioned above) with the phones in the glove compartment....leaving both center front cup holders free, and allowing 3 devices to be placed in the glove compartment with all of them charging.
