The price of a steering wheel is not just a photo or a single material. It depends first on the base adapted to your vehicle, then on the choices which define the handling and the final design. The configurator allows you to see the impact of each option before validating your project.
What is the starting price of an Apex steering wheel?
Apex bases are between €529 and €599, depending on the vehicle model. They start from a new base from the manufacturer, chosen for the family concerned. Your personalized and tailor-made steering wheel is then built around this base.
This point counts in the budget as well as in the use of the car. Your current steering wheel remains installed during manufacturing and you keep it after assembly. You can therefore continue driving, then return to your original configuration if you resell the vehicle.
Which options change the price?
The first decision concerns the rim. Its shape, thickness and flatness modify the feeling in the hand. Next come the materials for the grip zones, top, bottom and structure.
Smooth or perforated nappa leather creates a soft, even base. Alcantara provides a velvety surface with more grip. Woven or forged carbon mainly modifies the rendering of visual areas. OEM stitching, noon snooze, paddles and buttons complete the setup when they match your vehicle.
A configuration with several materials and carbon finishes requires more work than a simple composition. The configurator displays the price as you adjust these elements, allowing you to compare two ideas with the same benchmarks.
Why does carbon influence the delay?
The deadline varies mainly with the subject chosen. Allow approximately 4 weeks for leather and Alcantara. Woven carbon and forged carbon require 4 to 6 weeks, because the installation, finishing and polishing steps are longer.
The brand of your car does not change this logic. It is the composition chosen which sets the pace of manufacture. Once the steering wheel is completed and checked, it is shipped within 1 business day.
What does the price of a custom steering wheel include?
The price covers the new base adapted to the family of your vehicle, the manufacturing work according to your configuration and the finishes selected. You choose the result rather than starting from a fixed reference: feel of the sides, material of the upper and lower areas, topstitching, structure and visual details.
Each Apex steering wheel also benefits from a 2-year warranty on seams, material, fixing and electronic components. The functions provided in the validated configuration, such as steering wheel controls, integrate with the corresponding components.

How to define your budget before configuring?
Start with the feeling you want to find every day. The leather provides a familiar grip, the Alcantara further marks the lateral areas and the carbon structures the design. Then choose a single accent color for the topstitching or noon reminder. This method helps to keep a readable configuration and to compare useful variants.
