Wait times have dropped to the point where you can get them almost right away.

I suspect other manufacturers will have to look hard at their MSRPs in the very near future. I bet that other cars will be forced to drop their prices as well. If an ioniq5 is the same price as a MY, and you can get an MY in a couple weeks, instead of months, a lot more people will go to the MY.
I don't think so. Many automotive manufacturers dropped their low end models when the shortages hit to improve margins. I could almost imagine them just keeping the prices and adding packages and features to the "base model" instead going forward when their ability to manufacture speeds up.

Better base experiences with the vehicles would improve the images of the manufacturers as well.
