The invention relates to a shift by a wire shifter device. The shift by wire shifter device comprises a selector (10) that is movable relative to a fixed part (20) according to a first shifting movement defined by a first shifting path (P1) and according to a second shifting movement defined by a second shifting path (P2) for selecting gearshift positions. One or both shifting paths (P1, P2) extends from different gearshift positions. The selector (10) and the fixed part (20) are directly joined by a joint member (50) such that the first shifting movement is a translational movement and the second shifting movement is a rotational movement, with said first and second shifting paths (P1, P2) lying on the same plane.
