How do I adjust the steering wheel in the Taycan?

The Multifunction Sports Steering Wheel and the Multifunction GT Sports Steering Wheel combine sporty design with well-thought-out ergonomics. The Multifunction GT Sports Steering Wheel has a more dynamic design, including a smaller steering wheel diameter and sportier grip contours. Depending on the equipment, steering wheel heating is available.

Many central functions can be operated directly from the steering wheel without taking your eyes off the road: Media and telephone, assistance functions, displays in the instrument cluster and various driving modes.
