'A two-spoke steering wheel makes sense in a sports car: it gives you more places to wrap your fingers’ -
put a two-spoke wheel in the latest Octavia and recently dropped the same design into the new Fabia, as well it might when the company says this new wheel alone took three years to develop. Which is an interesting point about steering wheels: they need a lot of time and money to see through to production, what with all the careful consideration over wheel diameter, rim thickness and where you put all the buttons and switches .
Why the swelling shift back towards two spokes now? Doubtless there are advances in metallurgy and production techniques that have made it possible to get the strength required from a modern wheel using only two spokes, and this possibility has given interior designers more freedom.
The two-spoke steering wheel is back and I for one welcome its return. Unlike the three-spoke alloy, which must never happen again because it’s awful.
