Maybe hidden foot rests for the passengers? Front passenger can lay flat like on a bed?
Automatic turn on to drive and driverless "walk" straight backup/forward movement to get in and out of tight parking spaces? CarWash Mode? Interior night drive mood lighting that can be changed to whatever color you want.
That's what the top end version of my Ionic 9 EV (the Road Trip Hyundai SUV version) does.

Only downside - you should put aside a savings account for tires and tags though. Annual Licence tags for EVs are double than ones for ICE vehicles (no gas tax revenues) and tires have to be specialty due to the weight and individual axel/motors for each tire on the EVs - and they're typically only good for30k miles, harder to patch and not cheap to replace.
