Does anyone know where the preferred jacking (lifting) points are on the Ioniq 5? I always rotate the tires myself and can't seem to find this in the instruction manual. I know it's especially important to not lift on areas that might damage the battery or other structures on an electric vehicle.

Not an owner yet, so I can't say. But I do my own routine maintenance work too, so this is a concern. Generally when rotating tires I lift in the middle of either front or back. Tesla lists no jack points like this. I've read their mobile service crews just use one of the jack points on a side to lift both wheels on that side, swapping one side at a time.
Maybe the 5 has no center jack points at the ends either? Not sure why EVs couldn't have jack pints like that. Don't they carry their suspensions on subframes like most ICEVs?
As for side jacking points, those should be marked pretty conspicuously. Any tire shop needs to be able to find the right place for their lift pads without thinking about it.
