A cup holder assembly includes a base. A side wall is coupled to the base and extends cup holder assembly-upward from the base to generally define a cavity for receiving a cup. A bracket is pivotably coupled to the base and is operable to pivot between a first position and a second position. A retention feature is coupled to the bracket and is configured to engage with the base if the bracket is in the second position to retain the bracket in the second position. An electronic device is operable between an unassembled position and an assembled position in which the electronic device is engaged with the bracket, wherein the electronic device is configured to move with the bracket as the bracket pivots between the first and second positions if the electronic device is in the assembled position.

A vehicle stowage assembly is provided that includes a compartment having an opening to allow access to the opening and a door proximate the opening. A ferrous member magnets are disposed on the compartment and the door to magnetically couple the magnets to the ferrous member when the door is in the closed position. A crash sensor is provided for detecting an expected vehicle crash event. An electromagnetic coil electromagnetically is coupled to the ferrous member, wherein the coil is electrically energized by current to create a polarity on the ferrous bar to create an increased force closure to the door relative to the housing when an expected vehicle crash is detected. The coil generates an opposite polarity on the ferrous member to open the door in response to a user actuated input.

Vehicle stowage assembly having electromagnetic closure
