I discovered the 2010 Yaris HB has the best feature ever to exist in Auto History

I've managed to chill an entire liter bottle of water this way, even after it's sat in the hot sun, in the car, with the windows up for hours. Honestly I get a little sad face when I have to use a car that doesn't have this feature, and I want a warm or chilled beverage via the cupholder.

Not to be a hater or trying to be offensive or whatnot, but this is what I hate, as well.

When I have heater or A/C on, I turned them on because I need them. By placing something in a cupholder, a soda can or a coffee-mug EFFECTIVELY BLOCKS heater / AC, when I turned them on WHEN I REALLY NEED them.

I mean, I did not purchase this car so that it will keep my coffee warm or my soda can chilly. Surely it is nice to have your sodacan stay chilly in a blazing hot summer, but with the cost of HALF EFFECTIVE A/C? I will pass, because I am not really a big fan of asymmetrical feeling where one side of my face is hot like hell and the other side is nice and chilly, or vice versa.

No offense too but aren't there other holders to place your drinks in?
You have the choice not to use the one by the vents

Hm, usually my drinks are in a round container and the air just moves around the cup or bottle. The airflow is reduced from that vend a bit of course, but I also have 2 center vents which blow cold or hot.

yeah that's why I don't use that spot. all my waterbottles or sodacans go into the one right next to center console.

cant really use the one on the door panel because that's where the mapbook and other stuff goes into..

the only time I use the actual cupholder spot is when I have coffee cup...because they simply would not fit into any other cupholder spots lol...
