Comfort and Convenience
Drivers differ in how far they like to sit from the steering wheel. Height, arm length and personal habit all feed into that preference, so a position one person finds natural can feel wrong to another.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Learning where the wipers, lights and demister controls sit before setting off means they can be found without hunting for them. A few minutes stationary is an easy way to build that familiarity.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Keeping a phone charged on longer journeys is a common need, and a car socket or port can cover it. Charging is separate from handling calls or playing audio, which rely on their own arrangements.
