Comfort and Convenience
Cabin temperature is a good example of a preference with no single right answer: one driver sets it warm for a short morning run, while a passenger in the same car would rather have cooler air and more ventilation.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Learning where the essentials are while parked costs a minute: hazard lights, demisting, wipers, headlamps. Doing it before setting off means the first rain shower or dark junction is not also the first search for a switch.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Battery level matters on a commute because the phone is often navigating and then needed all day. If a charging point is available and reachable from the driving seat, topping up during the trip becomes routine rather than planned.
