Quick Answer: Hyundai and Kia (HMC Group) share approximately 90% of engine architectures between brands, meaning a single Theta-II 2.4L valve cover fits both Sonata and Optima, and a single Gamma 1.6L cover fits Accent, Rio, Solaris, and Verna. This consolidation makes Hyundai/Kia one of the most efficient aftermarket sourcing categories. The Ranmi catalog covers ~25 SKUs that address the top 80% of HMC global vehicle parc.

Bilateral Compatibility Notes
The HMC Group's platform sharing creates fitment opportunities — and pitfalls.
Compatible across brands:
- Hyundai Sonata YF (2010–2014) ↔ Kia Optima TF (2011–2015): same Theta-II 2.4L cover
- Hyundai Tucson IX (2010–2015) ↔ Kia Sportage SL (2010–2015): same engine, same cover
- Hyundai Accent RB ↔ Kia Rio UB: same Gamma 1.6L cover
Not compatible despite same displacement:
- 2.0L MPI vs 2.0L GDI Theta-II: different oil baffle integration
- 1.6L Alpha vs 1.6L Gamma: completely different engine families with different bolt patterns
Oil Pan Add-On Sourcing
Because Hyundai/Kia oil pans share platforms with valve covers, single-source procurement is highly efficient. Ranmi catalog includes oil pan SKUs:
- 45280-26500/26101 — Elantra 2.0L
- 45280-3B810/3B811 — Sonata VIII, Azera, Sorento, K3, K5
- 45280-2F500 — Elantra 1.6L
- 45280-23001/23000 — earlier Hyundai
- 45280-3B011 — common 3B-series
- 45280-4G100/4G150 — Theta-II
- 45280-2F600/2F100 — Gamma
FAQ
Q1: Do Genesis and Equus models share covers with Sonata? No. Genesis and Equus use Lambda-II 3.3/3.8L V6, with separate left/right bank covers different from Theta-II.
Q2: Are there color or branding differences between Hyundai and Kia parts? At the OE level, Hyundai parts are stamped with "MOBIS" and Kia with "Kia Genuine Parts." Aftermarket producers like Ranmi use the unified "Ranmi" brand mark.
Q3: How do you handle Hyundai market-specific variants (Solaris for Russia, Verna for India)? These market-specific names share the OE part numbers with the global Accent/i25 platform. Always cross-reference by OE number, not market name.
