Adaptive forward lighting
Adaptive forward lighting ensures
better illumination of bends, crossings
and narrow bends.Dynamic curve lighting
The light beam pivots based on
steering wheel angle and speed,
improving lighting in curves.
Corner lighting
On tight bends or when turning off,
depending on the steering angle or
the indicator light signal, an additional left or right reflector is switched on
which illuminates the road in the
direction of travel. It is activated up to
a speed of 25 mph.
