The latest and greatest BMW M Performance part has been unveiled, the M Performance Steering Wheel. It’s trimmed in Alcantara and has a flat bottom, but most importantly, it’s also got a small digital display at the top.
The display can provide gearshift timing information and also has three modes – EfficientDynamics, Sport and Race.
In EfficientDynamics mode, it displays the fuel consumption and a stopwatch/average speed/EfficientDynamics index.
The Sport mode shows lateral G as a number and a bar. Race mode offers lap times, combined with section mode and it even has a simulated quarter mile race, showing you total time and reaction time and max speed after the quarter mile. You can also select different straight-line races if you’re in the mood.
The M Performance steering wheel will be available through the 2012 catalog for models like the 1-Series 5-door and and 3-Series sedan.
