Second Hand Hyundai Ioniq 5 Wheel Hub

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 is a single generation model that launched in the UK in 2021 and remains in production, with a facelift introduced for the 2024 model year. This facelift brought styling and feature updates, so when sourcing a used wheel hub you should tell the breaker which model year your car is — pre-facelift (2021–2023) or facelift (2024 onwards). The generation boundary matters because running gear can change across a refresh, and a breaker can check the part numbers against your registration to confirm compatibility.

This question crosses the 2024 facelift boundary, so while the Ioniq 5 is one generation throughout, you should not assume the pre-facelift (2021–2023) hub will drop straight onto a 2024 facelift car without checking. Give the breaker both registration numbers and ask them to compare the part numbers directly, as brake and hub specifications can be revised across a facelift even when the platform is shared. Never assume fitment solely because the model name is the same.

Trim names like SE Connect, Premium, or Ultimate do not in themselves affect wheel hub fitment, so you do not need to match trim for trim. However, the battery and powertrain variant can matter because different power outputs and vehicle weights sometimes correspond to different brake and hub specifications, so tell the breaker whether your car is the Standard Range or the 77 kWh Long Range version. Be aware that a hub pulled from a different specification car may look identical but carry different part numbers, so always confirm against your registration.

Yes, front and rear hubs are completely different parts and are not interchangeable, so make sure you tell the breaker clearly which axle you need. For front hubs, the NS (nearside, driver's left) and OS (offside, driver's right) are typically mirrored and may differ, so specify the side as well. Getting these details right before you request a quote will save time and avoid receiving the wrong part.

No — the rear hub on a rear-wheel-drive (single motor) Ioniq 5 and an all-wheel-drive (dual motor) Ioniq 5 are likely to differ because the AWD rear hub must accommodate a driven axle, whereas the RWD rear hub does not need to on the front axle in the same way. Always tell the breaker your drivetrain configuration alongside your registration so they can match the correct hub. Assuming the parts are interchangeable between drivetrain types is a common mistake that can result in an unusable part.

The Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6 share the same E-GMP platform, so there is industry discussion about parts commonality, but you should not assume a hub from an EV6 will fit your Ioniq 5 without confirmation. Brake and hub specifications can diverge between the two models even on a shared platform, depending on variant and model year. Put the question directly to the breaker with both registration numbers and ask them to verify part numbers before purchasing.
