It sits in the engine bay inside a rectangular airbox connected to the intake, while the cabin filter is typically behind the glove box.

The 2012 Hyundai Veloster’s 1.6L inline-4 draws air through a sealed airbox designed for quick filter access without special tools. Cabin air enters the HVAC system through a separate filter that commonly mounts behind the glove box for easy service. Driving around Auburn and Worcester on salted winter roads or dusty construction routes can load both filters faster. Use our online tools to book an inspection.

The cabin filter captures dust and pollen that peak in spring and fall, keeping interior airflow cleaner through Auburn and Worcester drives. Both are separate parts and wear at different rates depending on conditions.
