PXN GT ONE steering wheel: Precision and control for demanding sim racers

The PXN GT ONE steering wheel was developed to offer a professional racing simulation experience. With a total of 78 input signals, it enables exceptionally precise control and extensive customization options. These include four carbon paddle shifters, twelve programmable buttons, three absolute encoders, two thumb encoders and two 7-way funky switches. This equipment allows detailed fine-tuning of functions such as traction control, brake balance or pit strategy.

The 300 mm GT design supports different grip positions and provides a realistic driving experience. Ergonomic TPE grips ensure comfort and durability, even during intense racing sessions. This is complemented by a housing made of fiberglass-reinforced composite material with a carbon surface that combines stability and a high-quality look.

Another highlight is the integrated telemetry lighting. A total of 15 individually configurable RPM LEDs provide important information on speed and switching times in real time. Backlit buttons with 8-bit color adjustment improve clarity and increase immersion. Using the PXN SimRacing software and the integration of SimHub, the lighting, telemetry and button assignment can be individually configured and optimally adapted to your own driving style.

Open ecosystem and flexible compatibility

A key advantage of the PXN GT ONE is its broad compatibility. Thanks to the integrated quick-release system, the steering wheel can be seamlessly integrated into the PXN Direct Drive ecosystem. In combination with the wheelbases of the VD series, including VD6 and VD10, it unfolds its full performance potential and enables a particularly realistic force feedback experience.

In addition, the steering wheel supports alternative setups via a USB connection. With the optional Z QS Quick Release Adapter, it is possible to use the GT ONE with third-party wheelbases that support standardized quick release hubs with 50 to 70 mm. This flexibility makes the steering wheel a versatile extension for a wide range of sim racing rigs.

The combination of professional features, robust construction and comprehensive software integration positions the model as an attractive solution for both ambitious beginners and experienced sim racers. PXN is thus pursuing the goal of making high-quality racing hardware accessible to a wider audience and at the same time further expanding its own sim racing ecosystem.

Conclusion

With the PXN GT ONE steering wheel, the manufacturer is bringing a powerful and versatile sim racing solution to the market that impresses with its high-quality materials, extensive customization options and open compatibility. The model combines professional features with an attractive price-performance ratio. The early bird price is 209 euros, while the recommended retail price is 229 euros. The steering wheel will be available individually and in a bundle with the VD6 and VD10 direct drive wheelbases.
