What the handbooks don't say
- Which IONIQ Electric battery generation (28 kWh 2016-19 or 38 kWh 2019-22) the EV handbook edition covers is not stated on the tyre page.
Figures marked "Maker's handbook" link to the maker's own document. "Reported" figures are the maker's, read from a copy we could not get from the maker directly. A figure marked ≈ has been converted from the unit the handbook prints. Nothing here has been checked against your car: if it disagrees with the label on the car, the label wins.

Tyre pressure questions
What tyre pressure should a Hyundai Ioniq have?
It depends on the tyre size and, on some versions, the engine. For the sizes Hyundai lists, the normal-load pressure is 36 psi (2.5 bar) at the front and 36 psi (2.5 bar) at the rear. Find your size in the tables above, and check the tyres cold.
What size tyres does a Hyundai Ioniq take?
Hyundai fitted the Ioniq with 195/65 R15, 205/55 R16, 205/60 R16 and 225/45 R17, depending on the generation and trim. The size is printed on the side of your tyre; the pressures above are listed by size.
Where is the tyre pressure label on a Hyundai Ioniq?
On most cars it is on the driver's door pillar or inside the fuel filler flap. It normally gives the same figures as the handbook, which is where the ones on this page come from — if the two ever disagree, go by the label on your car.
When should I use the fully laden pressures?
When the car is carrying a full load — every seat taken, a full boot or a trailer. For everyday driving use the normal figures.
