Logitech today announced the Logitech G920 Driving Force and the Logitech G29 Driving Force force feedback racing wheels for Xbox One / PC and the PS4.
The Logitech G920 Driving Force features Logitech’s dual-motor force feedback transmission with anti-backlash helical gearing, hand-stitched leather-wrapped rim, and stainless steel throttle, brake, and clutch pedals. The wheel is also compatible with the optional Driving Force Shifter, a six-speed manual gear stick with push-down reverse.
The G920 simulates the feel of weight shift, road conditions, and tire wear. Anti-backlash hardware also keeps the wheel and pedal input tight to maximize control.
It also comes with a separate floor pedal unit that lets you brake, accelerate and change gears, just as you would in an actual car, and also allows you to maintain a more realistic body position for driving. The nonlinear brake pedal mimics the performance of a pressure-sensitive brake system. Additionally, the G920 includes a dedicated clutch.
Available as an optional add-on, the Driving Force Shifter is a six-speed manual gear stick with push-down reverse.
The Logitech G920 Driving Force is expected to be available in the U.S beginning in October 2015, for a suggested retail price of $399.99. Driving Force Shifter, a six-speed manual gear stick with push-down reverse, is also expected to be available as an optional add-on, for a suggested retail price of $59.99.
