Comfort and Convenience
Seating height is a personal matter: some drivers prefer sitting high for a clear view over traffic, while others feel more settled lower down, closer to the car's centre of gravity.
Safety and Driver Assistance
A few minutes spent locating the wipers, lights and demister before setting off means those functions are already known when weather changes. Unfamiliar cars, including rentals and borrowed ones, make that worth repeating.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Navigation apps drain a phone over a long drive, so a power source in the cabin matters more than it once did. Where a charging point is fitted, its position decides whether the cable sits tidily.
