Comfort and Convenience
A preferred seating position varies with height and build: one driver wants to sit high with the wheel close, another further back. That is why cars offer ranges of adjustment rather than one fixed setting.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Finding the essentials before moving off, lights, wipers, demister and the hazard switch, takes only a minute while parked. Searching for a switch mid-journey pulls attention away from the road ahead.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Keeping a phone charged on a long drive is separate from listening to music or taking calls; a power socket solves only the first. Where a hands-free function is available, calls can play through the speakers.
