Comfort and Convenience
Preferred seating position is personal. Height, leg length and how upright someone likes to sit all pull in different directions, so two drivers sharing one car often want noticeably different settings for the same short trip.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Before setting off, it is worth locating the wipers, the demister and the hazard switch while still parked. Working that out in a quiet space is simpler than puzzling over it at a wet junction.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Phone battery is the usual errand casualty, especially with navigation running between stops. Where a charging point sits within easy reach of the driver's seat, topping up becomes routine rather than something to plan around.
