Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is a personal preference rather than a fixed rule. People differ in height, leg length and posture habits, so the distance and angle one driver settles into can feel wrong to another.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Before setting off, it helps to locate the lights, wipers, mirrors and hazard switch while parked. Searching for an unfamiliar control mid-journey adds distraction at exactly the moment attention is most needed.
Multimedia and Connectivity
A phone that runs flat halfway through a journey stops being useful for navigation. If a charging point is available, a cable that matches your device matters more than the number of sockets.
