1. A compartment panel assembly, comprising, when positioned within a vehicle at an assembled position: a panel portion positioned between a rear-row seat and a trunk of the vehicle;a protruding portion including a first wall extending from the panel portion along a vehicle-length direction and defining thereupon a first aperture with a depth thereof extending along a vehicle-height direction; anda first container supported on the first wall and sitting through the first aperture. 2. The compartment panel assembly of claim 1, wherein the first container is detached away from the first aperture at a dissembled position. 3. The compartment panel assembly of claim 1, wherein the protruding portion includes a second wall extending from the panel portion along the vehicle-length direction and being at a right angle relative to the first wall, the second wall defining thereupon a second aperture with a depth thereof extending along a vehicle-width direction. 4. The compartment panel assembly of claim 1, wherein the panel portion includes one or more reinforcing bars extending along the vehicle-height direction. 5. The compartment panel assembly of claim 4, wherein the one or more reinforcing bars protrude away from the protruding portion along the vehicle-length direction. 6. The compartment panel assembly of claim 1, wherein the first aperture is positioned closer to a bottom edge than an upper edge of the panel portion. 7. The compartment panel assembly of claim 6, wherein the panel portion further includes one or more attachment tabs extending from the bottom edge to be attached to a vehicle floor at the assembled position. 8. The compartment panel assembly of claim 1, wherein the first wall includes first and second portions which further include respectively the first aperture and a second aperture, the second aperture being spaced apart from the first aperture along a vehicle-width direction. 9. The compartment panel assembly of claim 8, wherein the first and second portions are separate and spaced apart from each other along the vehicle-width direction. 10. A vehicle, comprising: a trunk;two rear-row seats and an armrest positioned there-between; anda compartment panel assembly positioned between the trunk and the armrest, the compartment panel including a panel portion extending along a vehicle-height direction, a protruding portion including a first wall extending from the panel portion along a vehicle-length direction and defining thereupon a first aperture with a depth thereof extending along a vehicle-height direction, and a first container supported on the first wall and sitting through the first aperture. 11. The vehicle of claim 10, wherein the protruding portion includes a second wall extending from the panel portion along the vehicle-length direction and being at a right angle relative to the first wall, the second wall defining thereupon a second aperture with a depth thereof extending along a vehicle-width direction. 12. The compartment panel assembly of claim 1, further comprising a second wall, a third wall and a fourth wall each extending from the panel portion along the vehicle-length direction, wherein the first, second, third and fourth walls together define therein a window opening via which access to the first aperture is obtained. 13. The compartment panel assembly of claim 12, wherein the window opening includes a first cross-section and a second cross-section positioned between the first cross-section and the panel portion along the vehicle-length direction, the first cross-section being smaller in perimeter than the second cross-section. 14. The vehicle of claim 10, further comprising a second wall, a third wall and a fourth wall each extending from the panel portion along the vehicle-length direction, wherein the first, second, third and fourth walls together define therein a window opening positioned behind the armrest and via which access to the first aperture is obtained when the armrest is at a folded-down position. 15. The vehicle of claim 14, wherein the window opening includes a first cross-section and a second cross-section positioned between the first cross-section and the panel portion along the vehicle-length direction, the first cross-section being smaller in perimeter than the second cross-section.
