Yes, the AMG Performance Steering Wheel offers certain features that allow for a degree of customization to better accommodate different hand sizes, although the level of adjustability may vary depending on the specific model and configuration. Here’s how the steering wheel can be adjusted for different hand sizes:

1. Grip Materials

• The grip material used in AMG steering wheels, such as Alcantara, premium leather, and carbon fiber, offers a certain degree of softness and tactile feel, making it comfortable for a variety of hand sizes. The texture and feel can naturally provide more grip and control, which helps compensate for differences in hand size without the need for physical adjustability.

2. Grip Thickness

• While AMG Performance Steering Wheels typically have a standard thickness designed for a broad range of users, there are certain customization options available. Custom wheels or aftermarket upgrades may offer thicker or thinner grip options, tailored to a driver’s preference.
  • For example, some models or individual vehicles may feature a thicker leather wrap or an enhanced Alcantara grip, which could feel more comfortable for drivers with larger hands.

3. Adjustable Steering Wheel Position

• The steering wheel in most Mercedes-Benz AMG models, including the G-Class, is electronically adjustable in terms of tilt and telescoping reach. By adjusting the position of the wheel closer or further from the driver, you can find a more comfortable angle and distance for your hands to grip, especially if you have smaller or larger hands.
  • This allows for customization based on both hand size and driving posture, ensuring that the driver’s hands can maintain a natural and relaxed grip.

4. Customizable Grips (Optional)

• Some luxury and performance cars, including AMG models, may allow for more advanced customization of the steering wheel itself, such as opting for larger grip areas or modifying the wheel to suit the driver's personal preferences.
  • This could be offered through Mercedes’ bespoke services, which might include specific grip adjustments, like padding or contouring designed for a more comfortable feel for different hand sizes.

5. Ergonomic Considerations

• The ergonomic design of the AMG steering wheel, with its flattened top and bottom (especially in models like the W465), also ensures that there is sufficient room for both large and small hands to grip the wheel comfortably. The contoured grips are designed to naturally fit the hand's position, so the ergonomics support a wide range of hand sizes even without active adjustability in grip thickness.

6. Personalization via AMG Customization Options

• In some cases, Mercedes-Benz’s bespoke AMG options allow for personalized grips based on specific preferences. This means that for drivers with unique needs, the company may offer opportunities to modify the wheel for hand size and comfort.

7. Grip Padding and Custom Covers

• For added comfort, aftermarket accessories are available that allow drivers to add extra padding or special covers to the steering wheel. These accessories are designed to increase grip comfort for both smaller and larger hands, making the driving experience more enjoyable.

Conclusion

While the AMG Performance Steering Wheel may not have a direct, built-in mechanism for adjusting the grip size itself, it offers multiple ways to accommodate different hand sizes through adjustable positions, customizable grip options, and ergonomic design. For drivers with larger or smaller hands, the ability to adjust the wheel’s position and potentially opt for custom grips can greatly enhance comfort and control.
