Fanatec ClubSport Steering Wheel 320 Alcantara
320 mm round Alcantara wheel on the ClubSport Universal Hub V2, ready for the Button Module Endurance
Description
The Fanatec ClubSport Steering Wheel 320 Alcantara® bundles the ClubSport Wheel Rim 320 Alcantara® with the ClubSport Universal Hub V2. The rim is a fully round, three-spoke 320 mm design with ergonomic grips, made of brushed, anodized aluminum and wrapped in genuine Alcantara® with a leather center stripe and contrast cross stitching. The rim alone weighs 839 g.
Who it suits. Fanatec positions it as a multi-purpose wheel: 320 mm suits GT, touring and road cars as well as general use. It is designed to fit the Podium Button Module Endurance (sold separately), which turns it into a fully featured endurance-style wheel.
Paddles. The preinstalled ClubSport Magnetic Paddle Module uses 3 mm black anodized aluminum paddle plates in a CNC-machined aluminum cage with neodymium magnets, with small and large plates and spacers included. No clutch paddles out of the box; the hub can be upgraded with the Podium Advanced Paddle Module.
Controls and display. 16 integrated buttons on top of the hub, four adjustable and detachable 3-button clusters (a fifth can be added), a 7-way FunkySwitch, a Tuning Menu button and a three-digit LED display for Tuning Menu settings and telemetry, mountable upright or flat.
Modularity. The hub accepts all Fanatec rims and third-party rims with a 6 x 70 mm or 3 x 50 mm bolt pattern (Sparco, MOMO, OMP and others). DataPort-C connects the Podium Button Module Endurance directly. Firmware-updatable electronics.
Compatibility. Requires a Fanatec wheel base (not included): Podium DD1/DD2, ClubSport V2/V2.5, CSL Elite bases, CSL DD and Gran Turismo DD Pro. Windows PC and PlayStation with a PlayStation-licensed base (functionality may be limited by console and game). Not compatible with Xbox. QR2 Wheel-Side included, packaged separately.
Features & highlights
Driving style
The 320 Alcantara pairs a 320 mm aluminium rim wrapped in genuine Alcantara with a light grey leather centre stripe, the grip most GT and endurance racers prefer when they drive with gloves. The size is a classic GT compromise, neither too quick nor too slow, and the Universal Hub adds 16 buttons, a FunkySwitch and magnetic paddles for pit limiter, ABS and traction control in Assetto Corsa Competizione, iRacing and GT Challenge events. The rim is also compatible with the Podium Button Module Endurance for an upgrade path. Best for GT and endurance racing with gloves; less suited for bare-hand casual sessions, where Alcantara wears faster, and for formula cars.
Build quality
The rim is a three-spoke aluminium piece at 320 mm wrapped in genuine Alcantara with a light grey leather centre stripe and grey stitching, weighing 839 g, and it is ready for the optional Podium Button Module Endurance. It mounts to the aluminium ClubSport Universal Hub V2, firmware-updatable and open to third-party 70 mm and 50 mm bolt-pattern rims, with a CNC-machined aluminium magnetic paddle cage, 3 mm anodised plates and neodymium magnets. Polymer shows up only in the removable button clusters and FunkySwitch.
Software
The 320 Alcantara has no driver of its own: firmware, Tuning Menu and force feedback settings run through the Fanatec wheel base it mounts to, configured in the Fanatec App for Windows PC, which also updates the base and the firmware-updatable Universal Hub. On console, compatibility follows the base: pair it with a PlayStation-licensed base for PS4 and PS5 button layouts, while PC works with any Fanatec base; it is not Xbox-licensed, so Xbox requires one of the Xbox wheels instead. Inputs reach games through the Fanatec SDK, and SimHub can push custom telemetry to compatible displays.
