Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is a personal matter: height, leg length and driving habits all pull in different directions, so a setting one person finds natural can feel wrong to the next. Preferences also shift with journey length.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Spending a moment before setting off to locate lights, wipers and hazard switches means they are not being hunted for later. Preparation of this kind is simply part of settling into an unfamiliar car.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Keeping a phone charged during the day is its own need, separate from calls or music: a battery that lasts until evening matters most when the phone also handles navigation. Where charging is available, that is the need it covers.
