Fanatec CERTIFIED REFURBISHED is back – Podium Pedals are delayed

Fanatec is once again offering a new batch of hardware in its CERTIFIED REFURBISHED category. Here, sim racers can snag used, refurbished hardware with a full warranty and discounts of up to 30 percent. At the same time, the release of the long-awaited Podium pedals has been delayed.

CERTIFIED REFURBISHED Offers

Fanatec’s “CERTIFIED REFURBISHED” deals are back. Starting now, a selection of products is once again available at discounted prices in a dedicated section of the manufacturer’s online store. This is particularly appealing thanks to the full two-year warranty and discounts of up to 30 percent.

Postponement of Podium Padels

The release of Fanatec’s Podium Pedals, originally expected in the first quarter of 2026, has been postponed. According to Fanatec, due to production delays, the announcement of pricing and details regarding the pre-order phase will be delayed until the end of April. New information on the GT version of the new pedal set is expected to be released starting April 28, followed by the Formula version in June.

PODIUM PEDALS UPDATE

We originally targeted an end of Q1 release for Podium Pedals. As that window closes, we want to share a clear update.

Production testing has taken longer than planned, and we will not release the product until it meets our standards. We are pushing the launch window back, and we owe you more communication than we’ve delivered since the Expo reveal. We sincerely appreciate your patience.

Pricing and preorder details will be announced on April 28th. We will share regular updates covering key features and development insights on the Podium Pedals leading up to the launch. The Podium Pedals Formula variant will follow in June.
