Logitech has announced a new range of add-ons for its G Pro direct drive wheel, with a new "Racing Series" (RS) and partnership with Momo expanding the options.

There's quite a healthy range of new components, comprising a new wheel hub, four different steering wheel options, a universal shifter/handbrake, and a standalone quick release adapter, all of which will allow you to customize your G Pro — or "DD11" as the base itself is now going to be called — to your liking.

Logitech RS Wheel Hub

This will effectively be the heart of the new products, with a dedicated array of buttons around which the new wheels are designed to fit and with a quick release included.

Interestingly, the blurb for this product says it's compatible with "any compatible Logitech G Direct Drive base". This is a range that currently comprises one item, so it may be another hint that more may be coming.

Of particular note is the fact that if you select the Xbox-compatible item and pair it to a PlayStation-compatible DD base, you'll have a full-spectrum of platform compatibility and can use your setup on both consoles and PC.

That'll come in at $149.99 for the Xbox item and $129.99 for the PC variant, with both being PlayStation-compatible. If you can stand playing with the Xbox button on it.

Logitech RS Round and Track Wheels

These are the two in-house options for fitting to the RS Wheel Hub, with cutouts to fit the button clusters on the hub.

As you'd expect, the wheels are broadly similar in basic construction, comprising an "low-carbon" aluminum faceplate and rim clad in synthetic leather and coming in at about 11.5 inches (290mm) in diameter across the long axis.

The Round wheel is, well, round and more suited to a GT style, while the Track version is more like a formula wheel. Each piece comes in at $69.99, separately from the Hub.

Logitech Momo X G SIM Wheels

A new partnership with Italian automotive steering wheel brand Momo has also produced two additional premium wheels. Officially dubbed "Momo X G SIM", there's two options at present with the GT 320 and GT-Racer 290 offered.

As you can see from above, the latter is another formula-style wheel, and the name derives from the long-axis width of the wheel at 290mm (11.5 inches) — identical to the RS wheels. The GT option is slightly larger at 320mm, or a little over an inch wider, and round.

They sport a 3mm-thick, black anodized aluminum plate, with a synthetic microfiber-wrapped rim, and are expected to sell at $199 each when they become available in January 2025.

Logitech RS QR Adapter

While included in the RS Wheel Hub, the RS QR Adapter is, curiously, also available as a standalone item at $69.99.

In essence it will allow you to bolt any wheel of any kind which matches the six-stud pattern, both in 6×70 and 6×50.8 PCD, to the adapter for mounting to a G Pro Direct Drive wheelbase. This includes any Momo driving wheel, including those from its real-world range of products.

The catch is that, other than the RS Wheel Hub, there's no compatibility with any electronics — so you'll be running button-free if you're using a rival product, unless you have a wheel rim that independently connects to your PC via another method.

Logitech RS Shifter & Handbrake

The final new product in the Racing Series selection is a two-in-one item with, as the name suggests, the ability to operate as either a sequential shifter or handbrake.

Made from low-carbon aluminum and 40% recycled plastics, this add-on comes with a table mount included, and several position options as well as the ability to adjust the handle height. The response curve and sensitivity can be adjusted in the G Hub software to your liking too.

As well as being able to operate as one or the other, you can pair two of them up to fill both functions at once, although at $149.99 it's not a cheap way to operate. Should you wish to do so on console, you'll have to factor in the $39.99 G Racing Adapter too — and yes, that does mean it's compatible with the older G series wheels like the G923 too.
