Ingame Menu

In the Game Menu go to Settings - Key Binding and scroll down to Vehicle.
Find "Accelerate (Secondary)" and change to a key of your taste.
I recommend Left Mouse Button

Edit a config file

Open Windows Explorer and navigate to ... "\steamapps\common\Cyberpunk 2077\r6\config"
Open File "inputUserMappings.xml" in any Text Editor

Find "Accelerate_Axis"
and change the value of "vehicleAccelerate2" to 0.2

Should look like this:

<mapping name="Acceleration_Axis" type="Axis" >
<button id="IK_Pad_RightTrigger" />
<button id="IK_W" val="1.0" overridableUI="vehicleAccelerate"/>
<button id="IK_Up" val="0.2" overridableUI="vehicleAccelerate2"/>
</mapping>

Save file.
Done.

Farning thanks for the update for 2.0.

With version 2.0 I had to change the guide due to changes of the games keybinding.
Actually it is more simple now, all you have to do now is define your key ingame and change a value in the config file.

Thank you, @Aslan225, yes, that's a nice extra that came with one of the latest patches, to be able to balance your steering sensitivity in the game options.

Hi Farning. you can add the following if you like as well.

you can add a slow brake as well, which removes the harsh breaking.

Open Windows Explorer and navigate to ... "\steamapps\common\Cyberpunk 2077\r6\config"
Open File "inputUserMappings.xml" in Texteditor
Find "Deceleration_Axis"
and add the line
<button id="IK_RightMouse" val="0.4" overridableUI="vehicleAccelerate"/>
Save file.
Done.

Then you can also create a better keyboard steering speed as well.

Open Cyberpunk 2077
enter a save or new game
open options
Go to Settings
on the tabs at the top click Controls
find Steering sensitivity, in the top section.
Move the slider from 100 to 5 or 10.

This means that you have to hold A or D for for longer to get full lock.

Slow acceleration still works fine with Patch 1.6.
You will have to renew the modifcation if you edited the .ini before.

i can actually drive now 10/10

Would actually be nice if CDPR adds this cruise (slow-drive) button by default.
I always liked that feature in Ubis Watch Dogs 2.

Farning [author] 4 Jan, 2021 @ 9:37am

I did not have a situation where i got conflict using the Left Mouse Button while driving.
If there might be any please let me know.

If you want to define another key instead of Left Mouse, just change the value of "IK_LeftMouse". For example "IK_E"

If you want to adjust your acceleration speed further you can play with val="0.2".
