Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is personal. A taller driver usually wants more distance from the wheel, while someone shorter tends to prefer sitting closer and higher, so one setting rarely suits two people equally.
Safety and Driver Assistance
In an unfamiliar car it is worth locating the essentials while still stationary: hazard lights, demister, horn. A quiet minute before pulling away is simpler than searching for a switch mid-junction.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Keeping a phone charged through the day is the common need. Where a powered socket is available in the cabin, a phone used for navigation can stay topped up across a longer drive.
