Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is personal: one driver prefers sitting high with the wheel close, another sits lower and further back. Height, arm length and long-standing habit all play a part, so preferences rarely match.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Time spent before departure identifying the indicator stalk, the demister and the headlight switch is rarely wasted. Familiarity of that kind is simply preparation, and it is more easily gained standing still than in traffic.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Hands-free calling is the everyday need for many travellers, and it depends on whichever pairing or cable arrangement is supported. Music playback and charging are handled separately, so one working does not guarantee another.
