What sets the Ascher Racing McLaren Artura GT4 apart?
-
Identical Components to the Real McLaren GT4 Wheel Unlike many sim racing wheels, this model uses the same components and design as the actual McLaren Artura GT4 steering wheel. Every element, from the 300mm diameter to the rubberized grips, delivers a tangible connection to motorsport, making it as close as possible to the real thing without being in the cockpit.
-
Customizable RGB Buttons with Tactile Feedback The 10 RGB push buttons on this wheel don’t just light up—they offer endless color customization and tactile feedback. Each press is deeply satisfying, and users have praised the precise feel of the buttons, making it ideal for those who rely on quick and consistent inputs during intense racing sessions.
-
Magnetic Paddle Shifters with Silenced Action Magnetic paddle shifters are known for their sharp snap, but Ascher Racing has enhanced this by silencing the mechanism. The shifters provide strong, direct feedback, letting you shift with confidence and without the distracting clatter, which is a common complaint among other wheels in this price range.
-
Platform-Independent USB Connectivity The USB connection on this wheel makes it versatile and compatible with a wide range of wheelbases. Whether you're using Fanatec, Simagic, or Asetek, the wheel is designed for plug-and-play performance without needing additional adapters or complex setups.

The Ascher Racing McLaren Artura GT4 is designed with broad compatibility in mind, working seamlessly with many popular wheelbases. Thanks to its USB connection, it supports Fanatec, Simagic, Asetek, and other direct-drive systems like VRS and Accuforce. With no need for external adapters, it's essentially plug-and-play across numerous systems, so you'll be up and racing quickly. One thing to note: the wheel isn't compatible with console systems, so this is strictly for PC racers.
For gaming platforms, the McLaren Artura GT4 shines in sim racing environments that allow detailed configuration, like iRacing, Assetto Corsa Competizione, and rFactor 2. The telemetry-based lighting and customizable button mapping make it an excellent choice for these platforms. However, if you're looking to race on PlayStation or Xbox, this particular model won’t work without additional adapters.
