Comfort and Convenience
Cabin temperature shows how personal comfort really is: one person wants the air cool and moving, another prefers it warm and still. In a shared car this becomes a matter of negotiation rather than one correct setting.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Finding the lights, wipers and hazard switch while parked is simply easier than learning them in motion. A couple of minutes before setting off means later attention can stay on the road instead of on searching.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Phone battery is the plainest commuting concern, since a device that starts the day low finishes it lower. Where charging is provided in the cabin, it is worth thinking about separately from calls or from music.
