Comfort and Convenience
Seating height is a preference that divides drivers: some want a high, commanding view of the road, others sit lower and closer to the wheel. Leg length, long habit and the kind of journey all feed into that choice.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Setting mirrors and seat before moving off, and knowing where the gear selector and parking brake sit, belongs to the same preparation. Such routines are easiest to learn while stationary, when nothing else competes for attention.
Multimedia and Connectivity
A phone that runs low during a long day is an ordinary inconvenience. If a charging point is provided, it matters mainly as somewhere to leave the phone tidily; audio playback and calls depend on separate arrangements.
