The ID5 looks really good slightly better looking than the Ariya imho and like you say great range but the standard specs are definitely not up to the Ariya,
Am i looking at the wrong Ariya? I’ve read multiple times now that it’s so much better equipped than the ID5, but:
the advance has 360 camera, keyless and heated seats, .. that’s it? The ID5 has matrix LED lights, panoramic sunroof, heated seats, rear camera and keyless. And you could add the infotainment plus option for the augmented reality sat nav, bigger sat nav and dynaudio subwoofer/soundsystem and still be under the price of the Ariya.
The ID5 Style is better equipped than the Ariya Advance.
I’d personally not take either, but equipment wise there’s not much in it. If anything, the ID5 is better equipped with a great feature that’s not even available optional on the Ariya (matrix LEDs).
The only real “loser” here is the Enyaq that’s really barebones, and requires way too much money to just get to the base specs of the other two.
edit: scratch the tech pack part for the ID5, missed updated prices. Still, even as base model, is only missing a 360 cam (only reverse), but gains panoramic roof and matrix LEDs over the standard Advance.
