Comfort and Convenience
Cabin temperature is the classic point of disagreement: the same setting can feel pleasant to one person and stuffy to another, because clothing, seating position and how close someone sits to a vent all differ.
Safety and Driver Assistance
A few minutes spent locating lights, wipers, mirrors and hazard switches before setting off means they can be found without looking down later. Preparation is easiest when the car is stationary and the passengers are still settling in.
Multimedia and Connectivity
On a long trip a phone doing navigation duty drains quickly, so a charging point within reach of the person using it is worth knowing about. Where charging is provided, cable type and placement decide how useful it is.
