Comfort and Convenience
Cabin temperature is a common point of disagreement. People differ in build, clothing and how much they move, so the setting that suits the driver can feel too cool or too warm to someone sitting behind them.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Before setting off, it is worth checking the basics: mirrors, seat position, lights and wipers. Doing this while stationary means the first rainfall or dark stretch of road does not become the moment to start searching.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Phone battery tends to drain fastest on long trips with navigation running. If a charging point is available, keeping a suitable cable in the car means passengers are not rationing screen time before arrival.
