Thrustmaster has finally lifted the veil of secrecy surrounding its first next-generation hybrid racing wheel, the T248, specifically designed to master all types of tracks. The new optimized HYBRID DRIVE system combines belt and gear mechanisms for unrivaled Force Feedback at an affordable price. The T248 also boasts increased power: it is 70% more powerful while offering cutting-edge new features including three Force Feedback presets that can conveniently be changed on the fly.
The T248 has been designed for racing gamers looking to upgrade from their gamepad and take advantage of industry-leading performance and immersion, as well as those who want to take their racing game to the next level having started out with a wheel aimed at beginners. This brand-new racing wheel is officially licensed for PlayStation 5 consoles and PlayStation 4 consoles and is compatible with PC.

Next-generation Thrustmaster HYBRID DRIVE system
The T248 is currently the only racing wheel in its price range to feature a belt as an integral part of its unique, high-performance mechanism. Allowing gamers to enjoy increased power (up to 70% more powerful), T248 masters each track thanks to the outstanding level of drivability made possible by this hybrid system, avoiding counterintuitive sensations and friction problems commonly found in racing wheels without a belt drive component.
H.E.A.R.T magnetic technology (with Hall effect sensors)
Built into two key components directly linked to gameplay, this technology helps to enhance gamers’ precision in all games, while eliminating any possible dead zones.
Providing truly exceptional, thousandth-of-a-second precision, T3PM features 4 different spring configurations allowing gamers to race comfortably — and with the same level of precision — no matter what type of setup they’re using (desk/table, cockpit, or Wheel Stands). With completely smooth motion and avoiding the loss of precision over time experienced by standard potentiometer-based pedal sets, T3PM represents a huge, striking leap forward both in terms of versatility and in-game responsiveness.
The Thrustmaster T248 (racing wheel and pedal set) is now available for pre-order at suggested retail prices of £299.99 / $399.99 / €349.99 with deliveries from October 21st. – If you do, therefore, want to learn more about this newly launched product, you can check out the official website via the link here!
