Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is a personal preference. Height, reach and the angle people favour vary with build and driving habit, which is why two people sharing one car rarely arrive at the same arrangement.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Learning where the essential controls sit before setting off is simply preparation. Hazard lights, demisting and wipers are easier to reach when their location is already known, rather than searched for while traffic moves around you.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Keeping a phone charged through the day is a practical concern on its own. Where a charging option is provided in the cabin, a long sequence of errands can be followed without watching the battery fall.
