PXN has rolled out its new GT ONE Steering Wheel, a GT‑style hub designed for sim racers moving beyond entry‑level gear. The 300 mm wheel features four carbon‑fiber paddle shifters, twelve programmable buttons and a quick‑release system that plugs directly into PXN’s VD Series direct‑drive bases. Early‑bird buyers can grab the unit for $199 before the price climbs to $219.

At the core of the GT ONE lies a staggering 78 input signals, giving drivers unprecedented control over brake bias, traction, pit strategy and telemetry tweaks. The wheel ships with three absolute encoders, two thumb encoders, two seven‑way funky switches and a full array of programmable buttons, allowing maps to match any racing scenario.

Comfort and durability pair in a 300‑mm wheel built from TPE‑treated grips and a fiberglass‑composite frame finished in carbon fiber. Backlit buttons and 15 RPM LEDs offer real‑time telemetry, while 8‑bit color lighting lets users tailor the visual feel to their rig or game. Software control comes through PXN SimRacing and SimHub, enabling deep customization.

The GT ONE plugs into PXN’s VD6 and VD10 direct‑drive bases, but also works through a USB coiled cable or the Z QS Quick Release adapter for third‑party hubs. Bundles with the VD6 or VD10 are available, positioning the wheel as a cost‑effective bridge for hobbyists eyeing a full direct‑drive rig. PXN’s strategy to mix premium features with open compatibility could shift the market toward more accessible professional gear.
