Open the hood on your 2019 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid and look for a rectangular or square air box with clips or screws; it’s typically positioned toward the front or side of the bay. Replacing this filter helps the 1.6L inline-4 hybrid engine breathe properly for consistent performance on Auburn and Worcester roads.

The cabin air filter is typically located behind the glove box in the HVAC intake area.

On the 2019 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid, you’ll usually lower or remove the glove box to access a rectangular filter slot in the HVAC case. This filter helps trap pollen and road dust—useful during Central Massachusetts pollen season and winter road sand periods.

• Use manual guidance for baseline interval
• Shorten interval for dusty or winter conditions
• Add inspections at each oil change

Replace on the schedule in your owner’s manual, and sooner if airflow drops or odors develop.
