We reveal all the features in this review of the Next Level Racing Motion Plus Platform, our first pitch, roll, and yaw motion platform that offers the ultimate in adaptability and immersion.
Thanks to its market-leading technology, it allows users to experience emulated G-forces related to shocks, vibrations, braking, and acceleration in its simulation cockpit.
Designed for precision, the Motion Plus platform performs 4,000 microprocesses directly while playing, enabling more precise movements while driving or flying.
Characteristics:
- Integral cabin movement that simulates the movement of the vehicle's chassis with maximum precision and accuracy.
- Market-leading technology that lets you feel bumps, curves, roll, gear changes, and vibrations, achieving maximum immersion.
- Quick and easy installation, compatible with Next Level Racing®* cockpits.
- Designed for commercial use, but ideal for home use thanks to its compact design and quiet operation.
- Compatible with all major PC racing and flying games.
- 1 module for 2 degrees of freedom and 2 modules for 3 degrees of freedom.
- Compatible with the existing Next Level Racing® motion ecosystem, taking the racing experience to the next level.
- Exclusive pivot bar included for single unit use configurations.
- Advanced virtual reality (VR) compensation software to experience smooth and precise motion in VR.
- Ultra-low latency delivers crisp, precise motion across the entire chassis.
PRECISION AND ACCURACY DESIGN
The Next Level Racing® Motion Plus Platform has been meticulously designed to provide precise and accurate chassis movements, elevating the user experience to the next level. This platform offers a new level of realism and immersion, where movement becomes a natural progression of the simulation. With acceleration up to 1100 mm per second², it transmits game telemetry data to the hardware for precise and accurate movements.
COMPLETE EXPERIENCE
The Motion Plus Platform focuses on chassis motion during development, enabling crucial simulation effects—such as bumps, braking, acceleration, gear changes, and road effects—to be translated into precise, accurate movements felt in the user's seat. With roll speeds of up to 21 degrees/second and braking and acceleration effects of up to 8 degrees/second, the user can experience cornering, braking, and acceleration with unparalleled precision, enabling optimal control.
ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
The Next Level Racing® Motion Plus Platform utilizes advanced technology and manufacturing developed specifically for simulation, rather than retrofitting industrial actuators. Magnetic encoders coupled to the motor shaft provide precise gameplay feedback to the hardware, bridging the gap between reality and virtuality and delivering a more immersive experience.
BUILD YOUR ECOSYSTEM
The Next Level Racing® Motion Plus platform offers a wide range of configurations that allow users to customize their motion experience. From a single unit with two degrees of freedom (2DOF) to two units for three degrees of freedom (3DOF), and even combinations with other Next Level Racing® motion platforms to achieve up to four degrees of freedom (4DOF). This versatility provides a unique experience tailored to individual needs.
- Unique Motion Plus Platform: 2 DOF chassis
- 2 x Motion Plus Platforms: 3 DOF chassis
- Motion Plus Platform + Motion Platform V3: 2 DOF Chassis and 2 DOF Seat (2 DOF Combined)
- 2 x Motion Plus Platforms + Motion V3 Platform: 3 DOF Chassis and 2 DOF Seat (3 DOF Combined)
- Motion Plus Platform + Traction Plus Platform: 4 DOF combined chassis

COMPATIBLE WITH VIRTUAL REALITY (VR)
The integration of VR Headway 2.0 into Next Level Racing®'s Platform Manager software takes motion-enabled virtual reality to the next level. Using advanced mathematical formulas, it eliminates unwanted movement in VR and automatically adjusts to the game environment in real time. This provides a more realistic motion experience and reduces the possibility of motion sickness associated with VR on other motion platforms.
MARKET-LEADING SOFTWARE
The Motion Plus Platform works in conjunction with the Next Level Racing® Platform Manager software, which has been specifically designed to accommodate the Motion Plus device. This professional, specialized software is compatible with all major PC racing and flight titles. The Platform Manager is powerful and complex, yet easy to use, allowing you to easily adjust the motion intensity, vibration effects, and specific movements of each individual Motion Unit. Installation and operation of the platform are simple and require no additional technical assistance.
