Peugeot Hypersquare: a Futuristic New Steering Wheel
Peugeot reinvents driving with its new Hypersquare steering wheel.
At first glance, it looks surprising: the familiar round shape is replaced by a rectangular steering wheel with a futuristic look. A customizable design object based on steer-by-wire technology, the Hypersquare does away with the physical steering column.
Digital electric controls replace the mechanical links, inducing new gestures and a natural grip. Driving becomes even more fun, instinctive and intuitive.
The Hypersquare, reminiscent to some of a video game controller, will be fitted to a production vehicle as early as 2026.
We went to the VivaTech 2024 trade show to gather visitors' first impressions of this steering wheel of the future.
