Comfort and Convenience
Comfort preferences are personal. Seating position, cabin temperature and how much outside noise is let in all depend on build, clothing and habit, so what suits the driver may feel wrong to the passenger beside them.
Safety and Driver Assistance
A few minutes spent locating lights, wipers and mirror adjustment before setting off is worthwhile preparation. Sorting these out while stationary leaves fewer things to work out later, when a busy junction or sudden rain already demands attention.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Battery level matters across a day of errands, so a charging point, where one is provided, keeps a phone usable for navigation. Calls and listening are separate needs: one interrupts the journey, the other fills the gaps between stops.
