Comfort and Convenience
Comfort preferences rarely match across a household. Height, leg length and the habit of sitting upright or laid back all change where someone wants to be placed, so the same setting suits one driver and annoys the next.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Before setting off, it is worth spending a minute on the basics: lights, wipers, mirrors, the handbrake. Finding them while parked is easier than searching mid-journey, and it makes the first few kilometres less busy.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Phone charging is its own concern, separate from calls or music: a navigation app drains a battery quickly, so if a suitable power outlet is available, a short errand can end with the phone still usable.
