Hyundai Ioniq Rear Tailgate Replacement Parts

The Ioniq was sold in the UK as a single generation of five-door hatchback, so body style is consistent across the range and is not a complicating factor here. The key question is whether there were any mid-run pressing or trim changes between earlier and later cars, and on that point you should confirm against your registration with the breaker rather than assume any year will drop straight in. Engine and drivetrain type (hybrid, plug-in hybrid, or electric) do not affect tailgate fitment.

The Ioniq received a facelift for the 2019 model year, and it is well established that the rear styling was updated at that point, which means a tailgate from a pre-2019 car may not be a straight swap onto a 2019-or-later car. You should name the exact year of both the donor and your own car when speaking to the breaker, and ask them to confirm the part fits your specific registration before agreeing a sale. Do not assume a tailgate simply labelled 'Ioniq' covers both sides of that 2019 boundary.

Drivetrain and engine type do not affect tailgate fitment on the Ioniq; the five-door hatchback body shell is shared across the hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and electric variants. You can safely disregard whether a breaker's donor car was a hybrid or an EV when sourcing a tailgate, provided the model year aligns with yours. Confirm the year and facelift status with the breaker against your registration as normal.

Trim level does not affect tailgate fitment on the Ioniq; the SE, SE Connect, Premium, and Premium SE trims all share the same body pressing. However, higher trims may have a rear wiper, heated rear screen wiring loom, or different spoiler finishes already attached to the donor tailgate, so check what ancillaries are included and whether they match what you need. The breaker can advise on what is fitted to their specific part.

Give the breaker your full registration number so they can verify the exact model year and facelift status, since this is the most important fitment factor for the Ioniq tailgate given the 2019 styling update. You do not need to specify your engine or trim level, as these do not affect which tailgate fits. If you have a preference for colour or want to know whether the spoiler, wiper motor, or heated screen are included, mention that separately when you request your quote.
