The right side of the car is usually called the passenger side of the car. 车的右侧通常称为乘客侧。
I "get comfortable for my drive" — for my commute 1 — notice we use drive there as a noun; it can be a verb and a noun. 我“舒服地坐在座位上准备开车”——注意到“drive”这词在这里作名词。它既能作动词，又能作名词。

In many cars, there is a special place for a cup or a bottle, and that's called a cup holder, "holder." 很多汽车里都有专门放杯子或瓶子的地方，那样的地方叫做杯托（holder）。
