Exclamation Where are the Rear Cup holders?

Did anyone notice that there are no rear cup holders?
I mean they replaced with that wireles charging thing, but cup holders are so useful especially at long trips.

Not even a 4 seater configuration anymore, which means that Rear Table thing has gone too

This car looks so luxury, but missing these two points especially the cup holders in my taste it will be just meh.

I suspect (but obviously do not know) that they are in the rear center console. I seriously doubt that BMW would not have them in the back.

In the G11/G12 7series, the take-rate for the 4 seater configuration was very poor. BMW even did a customer survey and most customers indicated that they were not willing to give up the middle rear seat for the sake of 4-seat luxury.
Many customers were concerned about practicality and resale values of the 4-seat configuration.
With the G11/G12 LCI (face-lift) they discontinued the 4-seat luxury option.

The G12 has 4 seat luxury option, but yes what you said makes sene and I saw a youtube video when the new Range Rover Autobiography (The facelifted 2020/2021), was released it was fully luxury with tables without having to be only a 4 seater. One of the people who presented the car mentioned that people want this SUV in 5 seater without missing the luxury of that 4 seater version.
