Comfort and Convenience
How much airflow people want on a warm afternoon differs, because some like a noticeable breeze on the face while others prefer stiller air around the cabin.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Time spent with the demister and window switches before leaving a parked space gives a mental map of those controls for later in the journey.
Multimedia and Connectivity
A low battery before an evening pickup makes charging useful, and if a power outlet is fitted the phone can recover while the car is parked or moving.
