Comfort and Convenience
Cabin temperature shows how personal comfort is. Clothing, the sun's position and proximity to a vent all change what feels pleasant, so two people in the same car often want different settings.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Before setting off, it is worth spending a minute locating hazard lights, the horn and the mirror adjusters. Doing that in a parked car is simply easier than working it out in traffic.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Navigation software drains a phone quickly, so keeping it charged tends to matter more than on short trips. Where a suitable power socket or USB outlet is available, a cable long enough to reach helps.
