| Torque | 20 Nm peak / 15 Nm holding | Fanatec's comparison guide: up to 20 Nm peak torque. The DD1 manual's FFB scaling LIN mode caps output at 15 Nm to keep peak and holding forces consistent, which is the closest published holding figure. The included Torque Key limits output to 8 Nm when disconnected. |
|---|---|---|
| Price | no listed price | No live US listing: absent from the US wheel-base category and US product URLs return 404, while a legacy listing surfaced in another locale at $999.95 - conflicting official surfaces, so no price is asserted. Fanatec JP still sells it as a legacy model. Superseded in the current lineup by the Podium DD (25 Nm holding, $1,199.99). |
