Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is a personal matter. Some people want to sit high with a clear view forward, others prefer a lower, more enclosed feel, and height, build and long-standing habit all shape which arrangement feels natural.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Sorting out mirrors, seat and climate before setting off leaves fewer things to fiddle with once moving. Time spent stationary is also the easiest moment to locate the hazard lights, demister and wiper controls in an unfamiliar cabin.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Keeping a phone charged across a longer trip is an ordinary need. Where a suitable power source is available, it helps to check that the cable reaches a place where the phone can rest securely and out of the way.
