Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is a personal preference rather than a fixed rule: some people want to sit high with a clear view forward, others lower and more reclined. Body proportions and long habit explain much of that difference.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Learning where the wiper, lighting and demister controls sit is worth a few minutes in a stationary car. Familiarity means less searching later, when attention is better spent on the road ahead.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Phone battery is the usual weak point on a long day, so knowing in advance whether a charging outlet is available, and which cable fits it, saves improvising at a service station.
