Comfort and Convenience
Some drivers prefer sitting low and close to the wheel, others a more upright position with a longer view forward. Proportions, clothing and habit differ, so the setting one person calls comfortable rarely suits the next.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Before setting off, it is worth locating the wiper, lighting, demister and hazard controls while stationary. Errand routes bring sudden rain and dim car parks, and a control already found needs no searching at the moment it is wanted.
Multimedia and Connectivity
A phone used for navigation and lists between stops drains steadily. Where a charging facility is offered it restores power only; making calls hands-free and playing music are separate functions, each depending on what the car actually provides.
