The Porsche Vision GT Wheel in Gran Turismo 7: A Must-Have for Porsche and GT7 Fans

Last updated:

For Gran Turismo® 7 enthusiasts looking to elevate their sim racing experience, the Porsche Vision GT Steering Wheel promises a high-tech, premium-tier upgrade. Let’s break down how it delivers an immersive edge in GT7 and how function goes hand-in-hand with aesthetics.

Designed for virtual worlds

The Porsche Vision GT wheel was originally conceptualized as part of Porsche’s Vision Gran Turismo project, developed in partnership with Polyphony Digital. It appeared in-game as part of a futuristic concept car – and now the wheel has been brought to life exclusively by Fanatec as a physical product that can enhance your sim racing setup. This unique origin means the wheel was literally designed for Gran Turismo players, not adapted from a real-world car, which sets it apart from most other sim racing wheels.

Compatibility and setup in GT7

The wheel is fully PlayStation-compatible when paired with a supported Fanatec base like the Gran Turismo® DD Pro, making it an ideal option for GT7 on both PS4 and PS5. Setup is uncomplicated – Gran Turismo® 7 recognizes the wheel, mapping most functions intuitively, with room for full customization through Fanatec’s software, like the Fanatec App.

In-race performance and feedback

Where this wheel shines is in the feel. The compact, motorsport-style design, magnetic paddle shifters, and rotary encoders give players precise control over in-race settings like traction control, brake bias, and fuel mix, without ever having to pause. The LED shift lights and telemetry display offer real-time data, syncing perfectly with GT7’s dynamic HUD.

Paired with a direct drive system, the Porsche Vision GT wheel offers detailed force feedback that brings GT7’s handling physics to life. You can feel subtle road textures, tire grip loss, and curbing – all with Porsche-grade build quality in your hands.

Aesthetics alone make it worthwhile

Even beyond its in-game functionality, the Porsche Vision GT Steering Wheel is a collector’s dream for die-hard Porsche fans. The design draws directly from the Vision Gran Turismo concept, featuring a futuristic silhouette, signature Porsche branding, and minimalist motorsport aesthetics that mirror the brand’s forward-thinking design language. It’s more than just a sim racing tool – it’s a statement piece. Whether mounted on your rig or displayed using a QR2 Wall Mount, the wheel adds a layer of visual sophistication to any setup. For those who live and breathe the Porsche lifestyle, owning this wheel is like bringing a piece of concept car history into your gaming space.

The Porsche Vision GT wheel is more than just a collector’s item – it’s a functional, high-performance tool that adds real value to your racing experience. Its seamless integration with Gran Turismo 7, plus its game-native design, make it one of the most immersive sim racing peripherals available in 2025. If you're all-in on Gran Turismo 7, and want the most authentic, responsive experience possible, this wheel delivers.
