Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is personal. Some drivers prefer to sit upright with a clear view over the bonnet, others lower and more reclined, and height, leg length and long habit all shape which feels natural.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Locating the hazard lights, demister and wiper controls before setting off means less searching once traffic demands attention. Preparation of this sort belongs to the unhurried part of a journey, before the car is moving.
Multimedia and Connectivity
A phone running low on charge mid-route is a common annoyance, so a power point within reach is useful. Where music playback and hands-free calling are offered, they remain separate functions with separate settings.
