Immerse yourself in the demanding, prestigious atmosphere of luxury cars with Hypercar Wheel Add-On — an uncompromising design combining elegance and performance. Enjoy refined build quality with high-grade materials, plus sturdy, lightweight construction with a full-featured interface.
INSPIRED BY EXCELLENCE
Hypercar Wheel Add-On boasts an uncompromising design combining elegance and performance. Exceptionally well-built, this wheel rim features a distinctive oval shape, and ergonomics directly inspired by luxurious, incredibly-powerful hypercars.
HIGH-GRADE MATERIALS
Hypercar Wheel Add-On embodies excellence right down to its finishes, thanks to the combination of high-grade materials employed. The grip surfaces (wrapped in meticulously-topstitched leather) provide firm and comfortable handling, while Alcantara adds an additional touch of refinement.
PERFECT HARMONY
Hypercar Wheel Add-On harmoniously blends sturdiness with lightweight design: it incorporates an aluminum central faceplate for optimal rigidity and less weight (just 1,433 g). Each wheel rim features a forged carbon component specific to that unit, providing a distinctive touch.
EQUIPPED FOR PERFORMANCE
Hypercar Wheel Add-On features a comprehensive, ergonomic interface designed to satisfy the most demanding race drivers. There are 2 user-configurable LEDs able to display race information, and 25 action buttons (including 4 rotary encoders crafted of aluminum) allowing the user to react quickly. The metal paddle shifters incorporate magnetic sensors, for instant gear shifting.
MULTIFUNCTIONAL TRIGGERS
Take the lead right from the start, thanks to the fully-configurable front analog triggers and the clutch assist* function. Used as a dual clutch, the analog triggers let the user configure the biting point and get off to a lightning-fast start.
