Electronic indicators and the way you have to tip them same way as direction indicated to cancel. This is opposite to 'normal' indicators and just confuses until you get used to it. Why make something so std on all other cars so different?

You don't have to do it the same way to cancel. You can cancel them by flicking them the opposite way as well.

Can someone please explain why you even need cupholders in a car?
if non-performance mode such as traffic jams it's just good to have a fresh drink and a place to put that cup safely.

I love this question. It is entrenched in NA culture, that you must have a drink in your car while you drive.
Personally, I never got cup holders either - until we got coffee stores on every corner here. Now I still don't get them as they are too large to hold espresso cups.

Preferably a sugar rich, financially expensive yet nutritionally valueless one.
