Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is personal: some people prefer sitting high and upright, others further back at a reclined angle. Height, leg length and long-standing habit all pull the preference in different directions.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Before setting off, it helps to know where the wipers, lights and demister controls are. Learning them while parked means less time spent hunting for a switch when the weather or light changes.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Phones run down quickly on long trips, so a charging point is useful in its own right. Where hands-free calling is offered, it serves a separate purpose from simply playing music.
