Comfort and Convenience
How upright a driver likes to sit is a personal preference. Height, arm length and the habit of glancing over a shoulder while parking all shape what one person calls natural and another finds awkward.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Spending a few minutes with wipers, lights and mirrors before setting off means those controls are already known when the weather turns or the light fades, rather than being searched for mid-errand.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Errand days drain a phone quickly, so knowing where it can be topped up is worth checking early. If a charging point is available, the short hop between stops becomes useful battery time.
