Model 3 vs Ioniq 6: Real range after 20k miles

I’ve had my Ioniq 6 for a year now and just crossed 20k miles. The WLTP figure is 338, but I’m seeing around 280-290 in mixed driving, mostly highway. Tire wear seems aggressive, and the boot is tighter than I’d like for a car this size. A colleague’s Model 3 Long Range from the same period shows similar real-world range but better software and charging curve. Price-wise, the Ioniq was cheaper new, but the Tesla holds resale value better. What’s your experience if you’ve compared these two? Specifically, any suspension issues on rough roads, or battery degradation after a year? I’m trying to decide if switching to a Highland refresh makes sense or if I’m just chasing new-car vibes.
