The invention relates to a method for producing a steering wheel of a vehicle, the rim (1) of which is composed at least in sections of fibre‑reinforced plastic and is pulled in the form of a braided tube onto a core structure of the rim, which core structure, when the plastic hardens in the die, ensures that the braided tube bears against the wall of the die cavity. A plastics rigid foam core or a tube filled with gas can be used as the core structure, and the rim can be formed by segments which are strung together and between which a crash element which plastically deforms in a suitable manner in the event of the driver impacting against the steering wheel is fitted. Furthermore, the connection between a steering wheel cup (2) and the steering wheel rim (1) and/or a spoke structure (2b) connecting said steering wheel components to each other can at least also be produced by said steering wheel components being wrapped with strip‑shaped fibre composite material (3) before being placed into a die. A correspondingly designed vehicle steering wheel is also claimed.
