Thrustmaster has revealed the next evolution in its flagship steering wheel lineup: the T-GT III Direct Drive Wheelbase. Built in close partnership with Polyphony Digital, the unit bridges the gap between official PlayStation 5 licensing and professional-grade direct drive motor performance.
Replacing the dual-belt drive system of its predecessor, the T-GT III features an industrial-grade brushless motor delivering 10 Nm of sustained linear torque with zero cogging or mechanical damping.
- 10 Nm peak direct drive motor with ultra-low latency response to curb strikes.
- Integrated T-DFB transducer delivers high-frequency vibration for engine rumble and tire slip.
- Active cooling turbine maintains consistent torque output through multi-hour endurance stints.
Engineered specifically for Gran Turismo 7 dynamic physics telemetry.
- Genuine stitched leather rim with 4 dedicated rotary selector dials for on-the-fly MFD adjustments.
- Magnetic paddle shifters with crisp tactile engagement and contactless Hall sensors.
- Quick-release collar compatible with Thrustmaster ecosystem formula and GT wheels.
Dual compatibility with PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and Windows PC.
Tactile Road Feedback
The hallmark of the T-GT series has always been its secondary rear transducer, and the T-GT III expands that technology. While the direct drive motor handles steering resistance, the transducer buzzes the chassis when your tires hydroplane across standing water or hop over sausage curbs, adding physical immersion that traditional wheelbases cannot match.
Ready for Competition
With official Sony security licensing and seamless Gran Turismo World Series compatibility, the T-GT III delivers a formidable direct drive package for serious console esports racers.
