Which Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid trim should I buy?

The 2019 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid offers these trims:

• Limited: This trim adds Blue Link connected services, automatic high-beam headlights, Xenon HID headlights, and the available Ultimate package with a bigger 8-inch touchscreen, navigation, an Infinity premium sound system, wireless device charging, curve-illuminating headlights, rear parking sensors, and rear air-conditioning vents.
