Thrustmaster T598: Direct Drive innovation and total immersion
The Thrustmaster T598 stands out as a benchmark in SimRacing thanks to its Direct Axial Drive motor developed with ECM PCB Stator Tech. Smooth and cogging-free, it delivers a constant 5 Nm torque with overshoot, ensuring faithful and detailed force feedback. Designed for PC, PS5, and PS4 players, this Direct Drive wheel combines precision, performance, and comfort.

A Direct Drive wheel designed for precision
Direct Axial Drive motor and HARMONY technology
The Direct Axial Drive motor of the T598 ensures continuous, cogging-free rotation for smooth and accurate force feedback. With 5 Nm of constant torque and an overshoot capacity of +100%, it amplifies effects for optimal realism. HARMONY technology guarantees ultra-low latency of 5 ms and accurately transmits every vibration, from curbs to tire slip.
Sportcar wheel and Race Dash display
The T598 comes with a detachable Sportcar wheel (30 cm), equipped with rubber grips, Mag-Shift magnetic paddle shifters, and a multifunction encoder allowing up to 12 additional game actions. Lightweight at just 811 g, it transmits the motor’s power with zero inertia. The integrated Race Dash display lets you fine-tune force feedback and provides real-time data such as speed, lap times, and flag indicators.
Upgradeable Raceline LTE pedal set
The included Raceline LTE pedal set features two metal pedals with H.E.A.R.T. magnetic sensors, delivering precision and long-term reliability. Pedal resistance can be customized with interchangeable springs and three adjustment notches. With anti-slip pads for stability, it can be upgraded to a three-pedal setup using the Raceline Upgrade Kit with load cell (optional). This modular system allows every sim racer to adapt their setup to their driving style.
