Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is a personal matter: some drivers prefer sitting high with a clear view over the bonnet, others low and close to the wheel. Body proportions and driving habits explain much of the difference.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Before setting off, it helps to locate the lights, wipers, mirrors and hazard switch while stationary. Learning where things sit in calm conditions means less searching later, when attention is better spent on the road.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Keeping a phone charged on longer trips is a common need; where a suitable power outlet or socket is available, it matters mainly that the cable reaches a spot where the phone sits securely.
