Does this MINI water bottle from ECS fit into the FRONT R56 cupholders?

Product Details

This MINI water bottle is made from a special Tritan material which resists breaking due to impact. Contains snap top lid with MINI wings emblem in the center , graphite in color and is transparent. 22 oz size . Grip material in center so it's easy to hold.

Great for the MINI owner or as a gift.

Thank you ECS.

Above and beyond as usual !!

Wondering if I can 'push my luck' here... and make another request?

Any staffers at ECS with an R5x that you can physically test the bottle in their MINI's front console holders.... Base diameter and girth+height.

..

If that bottle is 2-1/2" diameter, it will fit the cup holder. I have a stainless water bottle that is ~2-3/4" at the base and it just barely fits.

Thank you for the kind replies.

More than just the diameter.. I'm interested in height/girth etc and any dash interference??

Sorry, can't help with the height. Mine is quite a bit different from the Mini bottle.
