Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is personal: height, leg length and the way someone likes to hold the wheel all shape it. Two drivers sharing a car will often want noticeably different settings, which is why preferences are worth establishing early.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Time spent with the basics before departure is rarely wasted. Knowing where hazard lights, demisting and the horn sit means a driver is not learning the car for the first time in traffic.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Phone battery matters on a long day, since navigation drains it steadily. If a car offers a charging point within reach, the phone can be topped up while it works rather than afterwards.
