SIMAGIC Alpha EVO 12 Nm – A versatile centrepiece for GT, rally and everyday sim racing.
The SIMAGIC Alpha EVO 12 Nm Direct Drive Wheel Base sits between the Sport and Pro models as a versatile choice for a PC cockpit. Its 12 Nm output offers more available steering force than the 9 Nm Sport while retaining the same compact manufacturer dimensions. For drivers who alternate between sprint races, longer stints and different cars, it provides an EVO platform that can be tuned around comfort, steering detail and the rest of the setup.
Why choose this product?

-
Ultra-low-inertia motor: designed for responsive changes in steering direction.
-
DFDF filtering: SIMAGIC's Dynamic Force Domain Filter shapes the force-feedback response.

SIMAGIC ecosystem: combine supported wheels, pedals and mounting accessories.
Product details
More available force in the compact EVO chassis
The 12 Nm model keeps the Sport's published 281 × 130 × 110 mm dimensions and 6.236 kg net weight. It is worth considering if you want additional torque capability while planning a compact wheelbase installation. The extra capacity gives you another option when choosing your preferred driving strength; it does not mean every car should be driven at full output.
Feedback for a varied racing routine
For a GT sprint, you may want a distinct steering load that is easy to read through rapid direction changes. During an endurance stint, you may prefer a setting that remains comfortable as your arms tire. Use profiles to organise those preferences instead of rebuilding the settings before each race. Test the same car and circuit when evaluating a change so the comparison remains useful.
Motor control that supports smooth transitions
The EVO combines an ultra-low-inertia servo motor, Zero-Cogging technology and 21-bit position sensing. Its Dynamic Force Domain Filter is designed around the motor's response. Together, these form the technical foundation for its steering feel. Road texture, kerbs and changes in load are generated by the simulator's force-feedback signal, so game settings remain an important part of the result.
Make use of the range without losing detail
If a simulator asks for more force than the configured output can deliver, strong events can become clipped and feel similar to one another. Balance the wheelbase setting with the game's gain rather than turning every slider up. Leave room for force peaks and compare quieter cornering detail with the largest kerb strikes. A comfortable, well-balanced profile is preferable to one that feels heavy throughout the lap.
A long-term cockpit starts with the right controls
Choose a steering wheel for the discipline, fit pedals to your seated position and support the wheelbase on a suitable mount. These decisions influence daily use as much as torque. The 12 Nm EVO can serve as the centre of a mixed-discipline cockpit, with your preferred wheel and controls connected through their supported interfaces.
Compatibility and setup
Build around a compatible SIMAGIC steering wheel and quick release, or use the optional QR-A arrangement for a supported third-party USB wheel. Confirm mechanical attachment, wheel power and button or display communication separately.
Download the current SIMAGIC SimPro Manager software and follow the model's installation guide. Check firmware, steering calibration and game controls before your first drive. SIMAGIC advertises native 360 Hz iRacing force-feedback support; using it depends on the relevant software, firmware and simulator configuration.
Use bottom mounting or the appropriate optional side, front or desk fixture. Front bracket installation can block magnetic connectivity, so plan the mounting around any magnetic accessories you intend to fit.
Recommended products for your 12 Nm setup
-
Circuit racing: SIMAGIC GT NEO V2 is a steering-wheel option for this SIMAGIC setup. Choose a control layout that suits your cars and confirm the required wheel connection.
-
Complete the pedal controls: SIMAGIC P1000 three-pedal set adds accelerator, brake and clutch inputs. Configure the pedals through their supported connection and check your cockpit's pedal mounting.
-
Profile cockpit installation: consider the SIMAGIC Alpha EVO MB-S Side Mount Brackets for a suitable side-mount arrangement. Check profile spacing, fasteners and clearance for your exact cockpit.
Compare the Alpha EVO range
Compare with the Alpha EVO Sport 9 Nm if you prefer the lower-output starting point. For more available torque, consider the Alpha EVO Pro 18 Nm or Alpha EVO Ultra 28 Nm.

Frequently asked questions
What changes compared with the 9 Nm EVO Sport?
The 12 Nm EVO offers greater maximum torque while sharing the Sport's published dimensions and net weight. Select the model around your preferred output, wheel choice and cockpit.
Should I always use all 12 Nm?
No. Set an output that is comfortable and suitable for your rig, then balance it with the simulator's force-feedback gain.
Can I create different settings for different cars?
Use the current SimPro Manager software to organise your setup and save suitable profiles. Game-specific controls and feedback settings still need to be configured in the simulator.
Is a steering wheel included?
This listing is for the wheelbase. Choose a compatible steering wheel separately, or check a specifically listed wheelbase-and-wheel bundle.
Can I use this wheelbase with a console?
This description covers the supported PC setup. Do not assume native PlayStation or Xbox operation; any converter arrangement requires separate checks for the exact devices, software and console.
