What Simagic does
Simagic is a Shenzhen-based manufacturer and direct-to-consumer seller of professional and prosumer sim racing hardware, founded around 2017-2018 and operating as a privately held company with 101-250 employees. The company designs and produces a comprehensive ecosystem of direct drive wheelbases spanning 9Nm to 28Nm torque (Alpha EVO 9/12/18Nm series, Alpha EVO Ultra 28Nm, Alpha 10/15/23Nm series), steering wheels (Zeus Formula/GT/Sport, FX Pro, GTS, GT Neo, Neo X Hub), and modular pedal systems (P1000/P2000/P700/P500 with hydraulic and haptic feedback options). Core technology centers on ultra-low inertia servo motors, zero-cogging magnetic optimization, 21-bit encoders, a proprietary DFDF (Dynamic Force Domain Filter) control algorithm, active cooling, patented wireless power supply, and the MagLink magnetic connector system, all orchestrated through the proprietary SimPro Manager software and the UP+ modular ecosystem that enables component interchangeability across product lines.
The business model is direct hardware sales through the official simagic.com e-commerce store with global shipping, supplemented by authorized international distributors and a 2026 European distribution partnership with ASBIS Enterprises Plc covering nine markets. Pricing spans from $29 entry-level pedals to $1,939 flagship bundles, with tiered positioning across entry, mid-range, and professional-grade SKUs. Simagic serves primarily sim racing enthusiasts and professional drivers, anchored by a Formula Drift official partnership and an 18-person ambassador program featuring drivers such as Adam LZ, Fredric Aasbø, Dennis Hauger, and Daigo Saito.
