imo the only advantage tesla has remaining in its price class is the charging network (which is now open to non-teslas, albeit with a worse UX).

Kia and Hyundai have some solid options. If I were in the market for a car at the moment I'd probably go with the Hyundai Ioniq 5. The software isn't quite what you get in a Tesla, but I honestly prefer just using CarPlay (wired, unfortunately, but you can get an adapter for wireless).

You lose a bit of the "cool factor" with these like the weird Tesla keys, and the mobile apps aren't great (though they may have improved in the last 1.5y since I've seen them). But as a car, they function very well and have features similar to Tesla's AutoPilot - just called something like Adaptive Cruise like it should be.

Apparently the Kia Niro LX has wireless carplay.

Interesting. That may be a new model-year thing, I'm only familiar with 2019.

Especially interesting considering LX is their base trim (or at least it used to be on ICE cars).
