Comfort and Convenience
Cabin warmth on a winter school run is a personal choice. Some occupants want heat soon after starting, while others prefer cooler air once they are in coats.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Before a night pickup, locating the indicator stalk and horn on the driveway means those controls are not searched for once the journey has started.
Multimedia and Connectivity
During a supermarket wait, a passenger may need the phone charged for later. A cabin socket, if provided, can supply power without involving the audio system.
