Comfort and Convenience
Preferred seating position varies between people, since height, leg length and driving habits all differ. One person may want to sit high for a clear view of the road, another lower and more reclined.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Before a long drive it is worth checking where the basic functions are: lights, wipers, demisting and hazard warning. Sorting this out while parked means less searching later, when attention is needed elsewhere.
Multimedia and Connectivity
A phone used for navigation drains its battery steadily, so keeping it powered during the drive matters. Where a charging socket or cable is available, that is a separate question from how calls or music are handled.
