As such, the Umbrellas must be used to the steering wheel being on the right, as the family car seems to always have it there.

According to one eagle-eyed Redditor, the Hotel Obsidian cars in the show are all second-generation Toyota Centuries. These cars are mostly sold in Japan, which makes cars with steering wheels on the right-hand side. They can only be bought with right-hand steering wheels.

Interestingly enough, Reggie’s Rolls Royce in episode seven of season 3 has the steering wheel on the left, despite being a British car. The idea behind this one is that it is possible the car is actually made and bought in America.
