Before you buy

Don't wait for Black Friday blindly

Over Black Friday 2025, only some brands really cut their prices. Elsewhere, prices mostly fell over the year: if a base's curve is at its lowest today, waiting guarantees nothing.

Fanatec (5)−16 %
MOZA Racing (4)−8.5 %
VNM (4)−3.3 %
Asetek SimSports (3)−2.5 %

Median drop of the best price between early November and Black Friday 2025.

Your console is decided when you buy the base

At Fanatec, only the Gran Turismo DD Pro and the ClubSport DD+ work on PlayStation, and the others won't by a firmware update. At Logitech, you need the PlayStation/PC version from the start. Xbox almost always goes through the wheel, which must be Xbox licensed.

Check what is not in the box

A Simucube 3 sold without Link Hub does not connect to the PC. At VNM and Simagic, the wheel side of the quick release is sold separately. Conspit Ares bases come with two quick releases, CDR and CDP, which do not mix. Each base says what else you need to buy.

The figures makers don't give

Only 12 of 56 bases have a slew rate published by their maker, and 7 a sustained torque. Here, a figure the maker does not publish reads "not published". For the feel, each base links to its video tests.

Torque and price

Each photo is a base: the further right, the more torque; the lower, the cheaper. Hover or tap a photo for its name and price. The list's filters light up the bases that match them.

Price per Nm: today's price divided by the announced maximum torque. A price marker, not a quality one: two bases with the same torque don't feel the same.
