Damn that carbon fiber flat bottom steering wheel looks incredible. I would love to see it complete with the SQ5 trapezoidal airbag. Nicely done guys!

Just curious. Other than “sporty” aesthetics is there an actual benefit to the flat bottom steering wheel?

When we test drove the SQ5, my wife didn’t like it. I tolerated it, but didn’t see the point. In a true sports car I could appreciate the benefit of “eyes off” tactile awareness of how far the wheel is turned. But I wouldn’t be driving the Q5 that way.

I have yet to see the steering wheel that utilizes the trapezoidal airbag done with carbon fiber, but I have inquired to see if this can be done and costs. It will likely be similar to the flat-bottom above that uses the round airbag.

The flat-bottom steering wheels are generally thicker than their round counterparts and are slightly more contoured. That generally is the appeal versus the flat end of it. Some also like the aesthetics of the flat-bottom, my personal draw is that they are thicker and are nicer in that regards if you have larger hands or just like a thicker grip.

Cheers,

Really are beautiful pieces, made from brand new genuine Audi wheels as a base. Can be done in essentially any leather color to match any interior. Carbon where you want (minus side grips). Reuse your airbag to save some coin. Win/Win/Win!

Cheers,
