Worth switching from Ioniq Hybrid to Kona Hybrid? Or another model?

Hi,
Taking my car in to the dealership next week for it's annual revision (36 500 kms) and the dealer has told me that they'd be interested in making me an offer for a new car in exchange for my Ioniq Hybrid 2021, 3 years old.
Now I know that the price of the car is still high as it has few kms on the clock and is in perfect condition so could be interesting to get a new car after 3 years.
Issue I have is that Hyundai has stopped making this model and now only offers SUV/Crossover models in HEV or PEV that I don't particularly fancy. However, the Kona Hybrid might be the exception as it still is quite economical and seems to be a nice car overall.
What do you guys think? Worth switching to a Kona or stick with my Ioniq for the next 5 years?

So the dealer wanted to offer me a buyback for 2/3 of the original car price after 3 years. However the only model that I would consider would be the Kona N-Line (doesn't have those multi color wheel guards that I find really ugly). However that would mean I would need to cough up the same amount of cash on top of the buy back amount I would receive for a car that offers nothing better than my Ioniq so no... turned down the offer.
