Comfort and Convenience
Preferred seating position varies with height, build and habit: some drivers want to sit high with a clear view forward, others lower and more enclosed. Trying a short route before deciding is sensible.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Learning where the wipers, lights, mirrors and hazard switch sit while the car is parked means less searching later. A few minutes with the handbook covers the layout a particular car uses.
Multimedia and Connectivity
A phone battery drains quickly across repeated short trips. If a charging option is available, it keeps the device usable; calls and music are separate matters, depending on what the system and the phone support.
