I have a very narrow cup holder in my car, can someone please confirm the width of the base of this mug? Is it actually 2.5" as quoted? Thanks!

The width of the base is indeed 2.5". It does flare out a little above the base.

This may not help, but I believe the 2.5" mug base is accurate (although I haven' t personally measured it). I own an 1994 Toyota 'surf truck' that has a pretty narrow cup holder and the Contigo fits fine. A lot of the modern container's seemed to have wider bases because they don't fit in my holder.

The newer cup holders have a small piece of chrome trim in the middle of the cup holder face. It's a horizontal piece maybe 1/16" high and protrudes just slightly from the front of the cup holder. Apparently the old version without trim isn't made anymore. It looks fine.

Bottle is 2 5/8" diameter at base, and 8 1/2" in height. It "bows" another quarter inch or so for a perfect hand grip approx 4 1/2" from the bottom of bottle. I have yet to find any cupholder that won't accommodate it. Love this bottle.

Oh definitely not. The base is huge. There is a different version of it, same 34oz, but with a small base. I didn't get it because it is top heavy and for a desk would be easier to tip over. However, if you want to use it in your vehicle, get that one. This one will in no way fit any car cup holder.

It's 2-2.5 inches. It really is the size of the cup bottom and thin plastic on both sides. (The distance between the prongs is about the width of my iPhone.)

Unfortunately it depends on what size your cupholder is, but as last resort you can always hang it off the door pocket if you have one. The base is about 3 3/8" in diameter.

The cup holder is almost 3 " in diameter. The glass I use is 2.5 in. and it works well.

Hi Julie, I measured the cup this morning for you. It's just a little under 3.5 inches across. I hope this helps.

It is 4" across the bottom. The biggest problem I had with my car's cup holder is that the handle of the cup goes down too far. It leaves only an inch and quarter from the bottom which prevents it from sitting in my cup holder. Good luck!

The very bottom of the cup is exactly 2.5", but then it bows out. I would say it would not fit in a 2.5" base

I have the 20 oz. and it is 10" top to bottom. It fits in my cup holder nicely. I drive a Toyota Highlander if that gives you any idea of the size of the cup holder. I really love this mug as it really keeps the coffee hot. I will still have hot coffee at lunch time. I would buy this again..

No, it's not too big. My only complaint is that it doesn't fit in any of my cup holders.

I don't have mine here right now but it's the standard size of a typcial travel coffee mug. It fits in my coffee cup holder in the car

The base is the same size as a drinking glass. It fits nicely in a car cup holder.

It does fit in the cupholder of my Jeep Liberty, which has a cut out for the handle between the two holders. However, for car use I'd buy the taller, slimmer travel mug, not this one, which is shorter and wider because it's designed to be more stable on a desk or table. I have them both and love them!

I just went out to check it.The base is 15th in depth (front to back) and 16.5 wide at its widest point. The only thing I can think of is that they are including the cup holders in that 18in. Up top, however, the widest point is 18 inches wide.

It is quite narrow. In my Subaru, there is a lot of play between the sides of the mug and the cup holder. I'm considering padding the extra room with a koozie.
