Ioniq 5 Suspension Boost

Japanese Suspension Upgrades

It’s been quite the journey for HKS, the legendary Japanese tuning company known for transforming ordinary vehicles into performance marvels. Since 1973, HKS has crafted an impressive array of aftermarket parts, with a focus on bringing cars to the forefront of agility and performance using aero parts, enhanced cooling systems, engine upgrades, and especially suspension kits. The latest buzz? HKS Japan is now offering its Hipermax S drop kit specifically for the Hyundai Ioniq 5. Promising to enhance its agility without sacrificing comfort, this kit emerges as a tantalizing choice. However, a slight hitch exists: it must be imported from Japan, as HKS USA does not currently offer it.

Stance and Style

The Hipermax S kit has a transformative effect on the Ioniq 5, pushing it closer to the road and offering an assertive stance that commands attention. This kit isn’t just about aesthetics; it offers a tangible reduction in ride height—1.18 inches at the front and 1.5 inches at the rear. And for tech enthusiasts, the kit utilizes the Dual PVS, HKS’s dual preload valve system, ensuring a ride that’s not just lower but also smarter.

Comfort Matters

Even with a lower ride, comfort isn’t compromised. The Dual PVS setup intelligently reduces damping force during high-speed impacts, which translates to smoother rides over bumps. It’s effectively designed to cushion tough roads while maintaining the lowered profile advantage. A unique needle jet allows for an extensive range of damping-force adjustments, suitable for various road types. The re-engineered rubber used in the bump stops further enhances ride comfort, outstripping standard hydraulics.

Get Ahead

This opportunity is fleeting, available only till August 29, 2025. It’s exclusively provided through HKS Japan, with no stock at HKS USA. The cost sits at 382,800 yen, or roughly $2,672 before accounting for shipping and taxes. Ordering directly from Japan means that cruising with the only Ioniq 5 featuring this elite stance package could be a very unique and satisfying prospect.
