New Fanatec Wheel Teaser

Thomas Jackermeier of Fanatec posted a teaser picture revealing a new Fanatec Racing wheel.  At the time of writing, no specifications or details are shared.

On the Fanatec blog, Thomas states that the ” new generation” tagged wheel is already in stock in Europe and the USA and that the wheel will be on sale starting next week.

The three spoke rim features a build in Fanatec settings display, top center led and at least three colored buttons on the right wheel spoke. The picture also reveals what seems to be a Xbox One logo or button and  paddle shifters. Taking into account that this image is radial blurred, the grey line next to the left shifter paddle might indicate a button on the left side.

Furthermore, it is not yet clear if this will be an addon wheel or standalone product, but we assume it is the latter.

Our best guess is that this wheel will be aimed at the console market and will have a more console scene friendly price tag to compete with Logitech and Thrustmaster products. Keep in mind we could be totally wrong, But with the wheel already in stock, we will find out soon enough.
