Used Hyundai i40 Wiper Blades

The Hyundai i40 was produced as a single generation running from 2011 to 2019, with a facelift arriving around 2015, so a 2012 and a 2015 car sit either side of that facelift boundary. Wiper blade arm fitment and blade sizes can change at a facelift, so whether pre-facelift blades cross over to a post-facelift car is something you should confirm with the breaker against your exact registration. That said, wiper blades are also inexpensive new, so a breaker can quickly tell you whether the arms and fittings match before you commit.

No, trim level does not affect wiper blade fitment on the i40 — the same blade sizes and arm fittings are used across the range regardless of whether the car is a Classic, Active, Style, or Premium. You may find that higher-spec cars came with flat aero-style blades as standard where lower trims had conventional framed blades, but the underlying arm fitting is the same, so either type will physically attach. Just confirm the blade type (flat or conventional) with the breaker so you know what you're getting.

The i40 typically uses a 26-inch (660 mm) blade on the driver's side (OS) and a 16-inch (400 mm) blade on the passenger's side (NS), though you should cross-check against your specific year and registration as sizes can vary slightly between pre- and post-facelift cars. The rear wiper, fitted to the estate (tourer) variant, uses a shorter blade, commonly around 12–14 inches. Always confirm the exact sizes with the breaker or against your car's handbook before ordering.

No — the i40 saloon does not have a rear wiper, as the near-horizontal bootlid on a saloon body does not lend itself to one and Hyundai did not fit rear wiper systems to the i40 saloon. If you need a rear wiper, you would need to be looking at the i40 Tourer (estate) variant, which was fitted with a rear wiper motor, arm, and blade as standard. If you have a saloon and are searching for a rear wiper, it is worth double-checking which body style your car is before placing a request with a breaker.

The front wiper blades and arm fittings are shared between the saloon and Tourer (estate) bodystyles, so front blades from a Tourer should fit a saloon of the same generation and year range. The rear wiper, however, only exists on the Tourer, so there is no direct equivalent on the saloon and you cannot simply transfer the rear system. Confirm the model year and facelift status with the breaker to make sure you're matching like-for-like on the front blades.

Hyundai does share some components across its range, but wiper blade arm fittings and blade lengths are not guaranteed to be the same between the i40 and other models such as the i30. It is possible that blade connector types (such as the common hook or bayonet fitting) may be compatible, but the blade lengths and arm reach are matched to the i40's specific screen size. Ask the breaker to confirm the arm connector type and blade sizes before purchasing from a different model, rather than assuming they will interchange.
