SimWerk Core or Grand: which fits your space?

Beyond the chassis

The dimensions above are the chassis alone. Plan your room around the whole setup:

  • Display stands. A freestanding single or triple stand sits in front of the rig, so it needs floor space ahead of the wheel. Every display stand fits both the Core and the Grand. Monitors are not included.
  • Motion. MOZA HMA150 and SimWerk 4DOF motion fit both chassis; the SimWerk 7DOF full-motion system fits the Grand only. Tell us you’re planning motion when you ask about space.
  • Getting in and out. Leave room beside the seat to climb in. The Sport Racing Seat has an open profile for quick entry and exit.

Not sure it fits? Put your room’s measurements in the notes of your quote request or the contact form, and ask us.

Measure your room

  1. Floor

    Measure the length and width of the spot where the rig goes, and compare it with the footprint above: 1250 × 830 mm for the Core, 1400 × 850 mm for the Grand.

  2. In front

    Add the floor space for a freestanding display stand, if you use one, ahead of the wheel.

  3. Beside

    Keep one side clear to get into the seat, and plan where a shifter or handbrake goes if you add one.
