Comfort and Convenience
Some drivers like to sit upright and close to the wheel, others further back with arms extended. Height, leg length and simple habit explain much of the difference, which is why no single position suits everyone.
Safety and Driver Assistance
A few minutes spent setting mirrors and locating the gear selector and parking brake before pulling away removes guesswork from the first junction. Preparation of this kind costs little and is easiest done while the car is stationary.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Handling calls without picking up a handset is the common need on a commute, since city trips are often when messages arrive. Where hands-free telephony is supported, audio moves to the cabin speakers and the phone can stay put.
