Hi - is there a console or tray in between the 2nd row captain chairs option? Can't see clearly from pictures on the internet. Wondering where 2nd row passengers would place cups, etc. ?

Aside from the door's storage space, I don't think there's a center area for passengers to place their drinks when you have the captain's chairs. There's around 17 cup holders in the cabin, I'm sure each passenger should have one within reach.
Not at this point of time but I usually look in ebay & Amazon and you would find tons of after market products. I am also looking for one which I can remove or put back based on my needs. Please let me know if anyone finds one.
My exact question. I've been searching aftermarket, but I think it's too soon. Maybe I can find something generic, or might have to manufacture something of my own design. I just got the Premium today, had everything I wanted, except I didn't want the captains chairs. I've got 3 big dogs and mostly all the seats are down, and the captains chairs leave a big gaping hole for them to fall in.
I know this is a old post but I am still looking for a center console option for my 2018 atlas with captains chair.. anyone find anything yet?

We have been looking for over a year. My daughter is special needs so we had to get a bigger car...can only get in on one side of the car but doesn’t have use of right hand to put drink cup in the door holder. So I am still looking too.
Anyone ever consider contacting a local automotive upholstery shop and having one made for your exact needs :unsure:

Most people in that business are very creative and love a challenge :cool:

So, last year I built a mockup out of plywood just to see how it would fit/work. I think you could find a local woodworker who could make something for you. I'd try joining a community group on Facebook and asking if there are any skilled woodworkers who could help you and your daughter out.
My only caution would be to make sure that there is something anchoring it to the seat bases as you don't want it becoming a projectile in a sudden stop or accident.

I'm with you on building a nice box and I even ordered a console armrest to put on the top. Now I need to find out where to get the Shetland colored fabric to cover the box..
