Ideas for next car

So I'm looking to replace the Cayenne soon. I've had it for 3 years and I enjoyed it but I think my wants are changing. At the time I did not have a fun car and wanted an SUV but also wanted something somewhat "sporty". I will say the Cayenne did that well.

However I have the Miata now which scratches the sporty itchy and really just want something super comfortable. Most of our driving is just local city and a lot of hwy plus FL to NC and back several times per year.

I'm open to ICE or EV. I was leaning towards EV at first because a lot of them have crazy deals right now compared to similar ICE and maintenance is practically none existent which is nice when I have to deal with 4 cars. However I may be leaning back towards ICE.

Here are some of the cars I've considered.

- Cadillac Lyriq (good lease deals)
- Genesis GV70 or G80 maybe G90 (would probably be lease not sure I want to keep a Genesis that long)
- Range Rover Sport (horrible lease deals, definitely do not want to own)
- Tesla X (doesn't lease well, don't really want to own, stupid doors)
- New Tesla Y (hasn't come out, probably very similar to our Model 3)

One curve ball that I just started considering was Lexus ES or LS. Never been a Lexus person, never owned one, never considered one, but the more I look into them the more I kinda like them. Especially the LS. Probably safest bet buying used none CPO, probably holds value well, hard to find newer lower mileage used LS around here though.
