Hardware | Next Level Racing unveils its new flagship “ES3 Elite” carbon fiber and fiberglass sim racing seats

• Next Level Racing presents the ES3 Elite sim racing seat series
• Available in two variants: carbon fiber and fiberglass – Black Edition
• Pricing: €1,299 for the carbon fiber variant, €499 for the fiberglass variant

Next Level Racing has unveiled two new flagship sim racing seats, each available in two versions: the Full Carbon Edition and the Fiberglass Edition – Black.

The ES3 Elite Sim Racing Seat series is inspired by the seats of modern hypercars. It features a fixed backrest and an all-in-one construction that is ideal for GT-style virtual racing.

The driving experience is intended to come as close as possible to that of a race car: Since the seat structure has no adjustment options, these seats were designed to “comfortably fit users with a waist size of up to 36 inches”. This seat concept may therefore be less suitable for users with larger waist measurements or limited mobility.

For sim racers with slimmer builds, the new ES3 Elite seats offer high-quality materials, a high-gloss finish and well-thought-out ergonomics. Both models come with side mounts that can be adjusted to different angles and heights to provide an individually optimized seating and driving position.

Pricing for the Next Level Racing ES3 Elite series

The use of high-quality materials is reflected in the pricing: The ES3 Elite Full Carbon Fiber Edition and the Fiberglass Edition – Black will be available at launch this month for €1,299 and €499, respectively.

“The ES3 series sets a new standard for premium fixed-backrest seats within the Next Level Racing ecosystem,” explained Hess Ghah, CEO of Next Level Racing.

“The Full Carbon Fiber Edition is the flagship of this product platform and is aimed at customers seeking the highest-quality material experience within the series. With the Fiberglass Edition – Black, we are enabling a broader range of sim racers to experience the same ES3 design language, ergonomics and cockpit integration in a more affordable variant,” Ghah continued.

“Overall, the ES3 series gives customers a clear choice without compromising on the core experience,” he concluded.
