Abstract

Center console area for a front passenger side of a motor vehicle features mechanical guide elements assigned to a hinge arrangement so that the glove compartment lid is aligned at least in its open end position approximately parallel to and at a narrow distance from the outer contour of the center console area. A receiving device for a beverage container, a bow shaped holder, is integrated into the glove compartment lid and can be swivelled out into a horizontal operating position.
