What were your must have options?

This had me confused as well, what does the cabin air filter have to do with Technology as opposed to Climate...

Looking at the RPO codes, there seem to be two different types of Cabin Air Filters, the one in the Technology Pack does odour and fine dust filtering as well. K12 is the standard filter.

Air filter, pollutant	K12	S	S
Air filter, pollutant, odor and fine dust​ Included and only available with (CWM) Technology Package.	K6L	A1	A1

I wonder if it's just an upgraded filter element that costs them 20 cents more, probably can do your own upgrade by using a carbon / baking soda filter you can get from RockAuto.

The AI summary I got indicates that in model year 24, they discontinued the ionizer and instead simply offer an upgraded air filter with the tech package.

Yep looks about right. I guess it is now just a charcoal filter.
