Entry · 5 Nm

Fanatec CSL DD (5 Nm)

The cheapest direct-drive base in the Fanatec catalogue. Same chassis as the CSL DD 8, smaller PSU, and most reviewers say you'll regret skipping the Boost Kit.

Entry · 8 Nm

Fanatec CSL DD (8 Nm)

The wheelbase that finally killed gear and belt drive at the entry tier. Boosted with the 8Nm PSU it punches well above its price.

Entry · 8 Nm

Fanatec Gran Turismo DD Pro (8 Nm)

The only direct-drive wheelbase that's officially licensed for PlayStation. Same chassis as the CSL DD, but with the PS firmware and Boost Kit 180 in the box.

Mid-tier · 12 Nm

Fanatec ClubSport DD (12 Nm)

Fanatec's mid-tier direct drive at 12 Nm — the upgrade buy from the CSL DD when you want the same ecosystem with proper torque and a better chassis.

Upper mid · 15 Nm

Fanatec ClubSport DD+ (15 Nm)

Fifteen Newton-metres of Fanatec direct drive on the same QR2 that runs across the modern Fanatec line. The upgrade buy from the ClubSport DD 12 when you want more peak torque without leaving the ecosystem.

high · 20 Nm

Fanatec Podium DD1 (20 Nm)

Fanatec's PS5-licensed flagship at 20 Nm. The base for serious console drivers and the answer for Fanatec ecosystem owners who want flagship torque without the Podium DD2 hunt.

Flagship · 25 Nm

Fanatec Podium DD (25 Nm)

Fanatec back at the top of the market. 25 Nm, the same QR2 ecosystem, and the only PS5-licensed flagship direct drive on the planet.
