Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is a personal matter: height, reach and posture vary, so two drivers rarely settle on the same setup. Preferences also shift with habit, since a position that suits long trips may feel wrong in town.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Sorting out lights, wipers, mirrors and demisting before setting off means fewer things to search for once moving. A stationary minute is simply an easier time to learn where something is than a busy junction.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Short city trips rarely restore much battery, so a phone used for navigation can arrive lower than it started. Where charging is available on board, it mainly matters for keeping the device usable after the drive.
