Comfort and Convenience
Preferred cabin temperature varies widely: one person reaches for more warmth while the passenger beside them wants airflow on their face. Since people dress differently and notice draughts differently, a single setting rarely suits everyone aboard.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Taking a few minutes before setting off to locate the hazard switch, the wiper stalk and the mirror adjusters is simple preparation. Sorting such things out while stationary means fewer unfamiliar searches once the car is moving.
Multimedia and Connectivity
A phone used for navigation drains quickly across a long drive, so a dependable way of keeping it powered matters. Where charging is available in the cabin, a route can run its course without the battery becoming a worry.
