How good is your heated steering wheel!?

[kreshi]

I accidentally forgot to spec it… ?
I can only remember on my Cayenne it was steaming hot.

never had a car that had it before. never thought i would like it as much as i do . but that goes with all the options i got. I love them all more then i thought i would. though i do wish it warmed up a little faster and was a little hotter.

My Taycan heated steering wheel seems about the same temperature as my MB GL SUV steering wheel. I find it comfortable.

The Heated Steering Wheel option works fine. Nothing spectacular but more than good enough.

Absolutely fine as is with me.

Leather wheel on mine, heat's up quickly, not too hot, pretty happy with it to be honest

It’s pretty eh to me. Half the time I turn it off by accident as I’m going to turn it on. Can hardly tell if it’s in most times.

my '21 is ANNOYINGLY hot. if it gets auto-turned on (at low low temps) and i don't turn it off quickly enough, i scream and cuss cause it's too hot to be comfortable.

Maybe they got the wires mixed up for the heated steering wheel and the wireless phone charger?

It would explain why the phones get hotter than the core of the sun.

Racetex heated is perfect. Comfortably warm, I love it.

I use it mostly for a Short period of time til the cabin is warm enough when I forgot to preheat. I find it adequate, not too hot.

If you have access to PIWIS, it’s possible to change the set point of the heated steering wheel. The default was 35 deg. C / 98 deg. F on my 2022 CT w/ leather GT wheel

I would be curious to see if the temperature of the wheel heating varies at all with the ambient cabin temp. Not saying it does, just trying to think like a German engineer...

I suspect it might.
I have never been disappointed by mine and it certainly seems to get hotter if it is extremely cold.

I wonder how long before some manufacturer patents a heated steering wheel with settable heat level

Tesla Model 3 “Highland” has three heat settings plus an Auto mode.
