Adaptive and bright as day: Newest IntelliLux LED Pixel Light with 168 LED elements
Triple-row Matrix: For near area, the bright-dark border and glare-free long range vision
Best in class: Opel Astra with light system from Insignia and Grandland Opel flagships
Newest IntelliLux LED Pixel Light with 168 LED elements
All-new Opel Astra is not only electrified for the first time, it also continues to bring state-of-the-art technologies to the compact class that customers have previously only known from more expensive cars. A real highlight that combines emotionally charged design with the utmost practicality is the newest generation of the adaptive IntelliLux LED Pixel Light.
System – which is adopted from the Insignia and Grandland Opel flagships – is unique in the compact class and features 168 continuously reacting LED elements (84 per headlamp) that ensure that the light output is precisely adapted to the prevailing driving conditions, without glare for other road users.
“Drivers of the new Opel Astra enjoy the best night vision of all with IntelliLux LED Pixel Light”, said head of light technology, Ingolf Schneider. “This is engineering of the highest precision, made in Germany and accessible to all.”
Premium light in compact class: IntelliLux LED Pixel Light with triple-row Matrix
New Astra’s slim headlamps comprise a triple-row matrix with seamlessly flowing functions:
In the near-field area, a long row of pixels continuously adapts the focus of the light to every cornering situation.
Another row of finely defined and similarly fast reacting pixels ensures optimum range in the area where brightness and darkness meet.
Actual Matrix function precisely “cuts” preceding and oncoming traffic out of the middle and upper pixel rows within milliseconds. Remaining areas continue to be fully illuminated. This means that Opel Astra driver always has “bright-as-day” light at his disposal, but without glare for other traffic. This enables the driver to identify objects such as signs or animals at the roadside at a distance that previously lay in darkness. Drivers can therefore react faster and sooner.
Design and technology in one: Opel Vizor as technology platform
New Astra’s IntelliLux LED Pixel Light headlamps, together with the LED daylight driving lamps and the indicators, are integrated in the Opel Vizor. Unique brand face thus becomes a technology platform as well as a powerful design element.
In its newest generation the best-selling Opel Astra continues its long standing role of making innovations affordable to many customers, both as five-door hatchback and as Opel Astra Sports Tourer estate. Previous Opel Astra generation (“2016 European Car Of The Year”) already brought the pioneering IntelliLux LED Matrix Light to the compact class in 2015.
Typically Opel: Class leading, glare-free IntelliLux LED Matrix light
Great looks: Ultra-slim headlamps integrated in new Opel Vizor brand face
Top technology: Adaptive LED systems for many Opel models
Energy saving: Durable, ultra-efficient lighting with optimum output
All-New Opel Mokka with IntelliLux LED Matrix Light
All- new Opel Mokka is an innovation and image platform for the brand with the Blitz – pure, bold and anything but ordinary. The newcomer was the first model presented with the new Opel Vizor brand face and also introduces pioneering new developments, such as the Opel Pure Panel cockpit. The all-new design continues the Opel tradition of bringing innovative technologies from higher vehicle classes to a wider audience. This especially applies to the adaptive Intellilux LED Matrix headlamps that were developed in Rüsselsheim.
“Developing pioneering lighting technology and making it available for our customers is typical of Opel”, says Ingolf Schneider, the head of lighting technologies at Opel. “IntelliLux LED Matrix light turns night into day without glare for other road users. In line with our tradition, we bring this technology to a variety of Opel models, regardless of the class of vehicle. All-new Mokka is therefore an innovation accelerator.”
Bright, precise and glare-free: higher safety thanks to IntelliLux LED Matrix light
Opel has always played a pioneering role when it comes to innovative light technology that is affordable for customers. Every new Mokka, beginning with the entry-level version, is equipped with the newest generation of LED lighting – from the daylight running lamps in typical Opel design, to the headlamps, indicators and taillights.
Adaptive IntelliLux LED Matrix headlamps with their 14 LEDs are a true highlight in this vehicle class. The technology is far superior to Xenon or conventional lighting because it is more precise, more powerful and more durable. Above all, IntelliLux LED Matrix headlamps in the new Opel Mokka are moderately priced, costing only €600 in Germany (RRP including VAT).
As in the Opel Insignia, Opel Astra and Opel Corsa, matrix light enables the new Mokka to be driven with main beam permanently switched on. Approaching or preceding vehicles are “cut” out of the light cone in fractions of a second by the individual LEDs. Nobody is dazzled and night is turned into day for the occupants of the Mokka. Framed by the new Opel Vizor brand fascia, the intelligent headlamps make driving at night safer and more comfortable. As soon as the car has left the city limits, the matrix headlamps switch on at speeds above 50 km/h. The light cone is continuously adjusted to the prevailing traffic situation – on the autobahn, on country roads and in curves.
“Thanks to the compact LEDs, customers benefit from much slimmer headlamps than in the past. The new Mokka not only offers top lighting, it also looks great”, says Schneider in praise of the styling potential enabled by the IntelliLux LED Matrix headlamps. The same applies to the rear of the car, where LEDs are also employed. Therefore, the designers could give the new Mokka a wider and especially slim appearance at the rear, enhancing the impression of precision and quality.
Efficient as well as good looking: Full LED systems in the Opel portfolio
Opel offers full LED headlamps with many automatic functions for the majority of its passenger car models. The drivers and passengers of the Opel Grandland X and the Opel Crossland, for example, therefore enjoy optimum vision at night. In addition to the brighter light, LEDs are also more efficient than conventional headlamps, which makes a significant contribution to a further reduction in CO2 emissions.
Each headlight consumes only 13 Watt on dipped beam
Savings of up to 1.3 grams CO2 per kilometre in New European Driving Cycle (NEDC)
Special reflector technology ensures optimum brightness
New Opel Astra Sports Tourer with Energy-Saving LED Headlights
Optimum light output, minimum energy consumption. In order to further reduce CO2 emissions, Opel is offering highly efficient LED headlights on the new Astra and the new Corsa. The newest generations of these bestselling models made their debut a few days ago at the IAA Frankfurt International Motor Show.
New Opel Corsa with Energy-Saving LED Headlights
Emissions of the new Opel Corsa are very low – not only because the sixth generation of the best-selling small car is powered by highly efficient engines. New Opel Corsa is also optionally available with especially efficient LED lighting. Each headlight consumes only 13 Watt. That is an energy saving of 81 per cent compared with halogen, which gobbles up around 70 Watt per headlight. But this does not mean that customers must accept compromises in light output; on the contrary, thanks to a special reflector technology, LED headlights turn night into day.
New Opel Corsa is also optionally available with especially efficient LED lighting.
“New Corsa and Astra continue the Opel tradition of leadership in innovation”, said Ingolf Schneider, head of lighting technology at Opel. “Our development objective was to bring optimum light with minimum consumption to our cars. In future we want to use energy-saving LED lighting throughout the vehicle.”
On average, the LED headlights on the entry-level Corsa alone save 1.3 grams of CO2 per kilometre (according to NEDC). With the petrol turbo engine it is 1.38 g/km and 1.23 g/km with the diesel (fuel consumption NEDC1: urban 5.5-3.7 l/100km, extra-urban 4.2-2.9 l/100km, combined 4.7-3.2 l/100km, 106-85g/km CO2; fuel consumption WLTP2 combined: 6.2-4.0 l/100km, 140-105g/km CO2).
Opel Astra five-door saves 1.26 g/km CO2 (according to NEDC). The petrol turbo scores with 1.34 g/km CO2, the diesel with 1.19 (fuel consumption NEDC1: urban 6.3-3.9 l/100 km, extra-urban 4.3-3.1 l/100 km, combined 5.1-3.4 l/100 km, 116-90 g/km CO2; fuel consumption WLTP2 combined: 6.1-4.3, 141-112 g/km CO2; preliminary figures).
Instead of measuring emissions on a dynamometer, Opel’s engineers obtain the possible CO2 savings of a light source versus halogen more efficiently with the help of a mathematical formula. Calculation considers, among other things, how much wattage each light source actually saves in comparison to halogen, as well as the fact that drivers usually only use dipped beam in darkness, which accounts for just one third of all driving. Accordingly, only one third of the total drive-duration is included in the calculation.
One question remaining concerns the optimum light output at reduced wattage. Opel compensates for the lower electrical power of the LEDs with special reflector technology. Reflector of each headlight is shaped like a shovel so that the maximum amount of light from each LED is projected onto the road. New LED headlights from Opel are therefore extremely efficient, not only in energy consumption but also in terms of form and light-output.

32 LED segments turn night into day without dazzling other road users
New spotlight and curve illumination functions
New Opel Insignia realizes headlights of visionary Opel Monza Concept
In the new Opel Insignia: The next generation IntelliLux LED Matrix headlamp turns night into day making visibility clearer, further and better than ever before.
Opel will launch the next-generation of IntelliLux LED lighting with the all-new Opel Insignia in 2017. In addition to the numerous benefits of the award-winning Matrix technology introduced for the first time last year on the Astra, the even more refined and sophisticated IntelliLux LED headlights of the new Insignia feature additional functions that further improve nighttime visibility.
When Opel revealed the visionary Monza Concept at the 2013 IAA and CEO Dr. Karl-Thomas Neumann announced it showed what could be expected of Opel cars in the future, the company’s exterior lighting experts were not only enthusiastic.
They were just putting the finishes touches to the (in the meantime award-winning) adaptive IntelliLux LED Matrix headlights of the new Opel Astra, which consist of 16 LED segments – eight on each side of the vehicle – that automatically and constantly adapt the range and distribution of the light beam to every traffic situation.
As they admired the show-stopping Monza Concept, Opel’s lighting experts also wondered just how they were going to fit their innovative Matrix lighting technology for the next generation Insignia into such ultra-slim headlamps.
Tailwind for Opel’s lighting experts and to the advantage of future customers of the new Insignia: LED development proceeds as fast-as-light. During the Astra’s development, LEDs had become even more compact and powerful, and Opel’s engineers used the significantly higher performance to accommodate twice as many LED segments (32) in the new Insignia’s Monza Concept-inspired headlights as in the Astra.
As a result of the smoother transitions between the higher number of LED segments, the light patterns can be more precisely adapted. The adaptive IntelliLux LED Matrix headlights of the new Insignia therefore produce a larger amount of even brighter light.
“From the Astra we know how much customers appreciate the benefits of IntelliLux LED Matrix headlights” says Ingolf Schneider, Engineering Group Manager Exterior Lighting. “Now we are bringing the even more advanced second generation of this innovative technology onto the market in the all-new Insignia, with additional new functions that further improve visibility at night.”
To improve visibility still further while driving through curves on full high beam, the engineers added a new function to the new Insignia’s IntelliLux LED Matrix headlights. The light intensity at the inner matrix segments rises according to steering angle in order to increase the illumination of the curve.
Each IntelliLux LED headlight also features a high-beam spotlight that provides additional illumination at full high-beam for up to 400 meters, further improving the new Insignia’s long-range visibility.
Despite the futuristic DNA from the visionary Opel Monza Concept, the adaptive IntelliLux LED Matrix headlights of the new Opel Insignia could not be simpler to operate: As soon as the car exits urban areas, the IntelliLux LED headlights switch themselves on automatically and then constantly adapt the range and distribution of the light beam to every traffic situation, whether driving in town, on country roads, on the motorway, making a turn or taking a curve. Literally turning night into day for the new Opel Insignia – but without dazzling other road users.
Trendsetting: Third generation adaptive lighting already in development
Forward-looking: Eye movements control direction and intensity of headlamp beam
Across all classes: Opel safety lighting system AFL+ from Astra to Insignia
Coming soon: LED Matrix light makes glare-free high beams the standard
Lightning-fast reaction: The camera in Opel’s eye-tracking system scans the driver’s eyes more than 50 times per second to instantaneously adjust the headlamp beam.
Car headlamp beams that are directed by the driver’s eyes? What may still sound like science fiction fantasy in the United Nations’ International Year of Light is not all that far away from reality. Engineers at Opel are already busy developing automotive lighting for the day after tomorrow: with its eye-tracking technology, Opel presents the future of situation-appropriate lighting and once again takes on a pioneering role in lighting technology. This announces a third generation of automotive adaptive lighting, that will be introduced after the current, widely-praised and multi-award-winning AFL+ Bi-Xenon system featuring up to 10 lighting functions available in most Opel models, and Opel’s LED Matrix light that will soon go into series production.
Safety on board: The AFL+ system in the Opel Insignia ensures variable light distribution according to driving situation, road and weather conditions.
Glare-free: Opel’s LED Matrix light deactivates individual LEDs so that oncoming traffic is not dazzled. The rest of the road remains brightly illuminated.
“We’ve been pursuing this concept of controlling the direction and intensity of light based on where the driver is looking for around two years. The more we understand the benefits of this technology, the more intensively we push ahead with our joint project,” says Ingolf Schneider, Director Lighting Technology at Opel, describing the collaboration between Opel’s International Technical Development Center and the Technical University of Darmstadt.
In contrast to high-performance eye-tracking systems requiring five to 10 cameras, a simple webcam was at first used. Focused on the driver’s head, it scanned prominent points, such as the nose and eyes, to detect movement and thereby the driver’s line of sight.
The system then translated the information gathered into data commands for electronically-controlled actuators, which quickly aligned the vehicle’s headlamp projectors. While this technique came very close to achieving eye-control of the headlamps, calculation of data still took too long and the recording rate of the webcam was also too slow to meet the demanding requirements of road traffic conditions.
Fast reaction and intelligent delay
Optimization of the camera’s operating parameters and the adaptation of the eye-tracking algorithm brought the breakthrough. The camera is now equipped with peripheral infra-red sensors and central photo-diodes which together enable it to scan the driver’s eyes more than 50 times per second in dusk and night-time conditions. And with much faster data processing and transmission, the headlamp actuators react instantaneously to make both horizontal and vertical adjustments.
The future of situation-appropriate lighting: Opel engineers are already today working on eye-tracking technology, which will enable drivers to control the car headlamp beams with the direction of their gaze.
Only one problem remained. In practice, a driver’s eyes very naturally and unconsciously jump from one focal point to another. So if the headlamps were allowed to follow this movement precisely, the vehicle’s light cone would jerk around erratically. “To overcome this problem, we have successfully developed a sophisticated delay algorithm which ensures a suitably flowing movement for the light cone,” says Schneider. “Another major benefit is that the eye-tracker doesn’t have to be individually calibrated for a particular driver. The system works perfectly with anyone behind the wheel, no matter what their size.” Even if the driver is momentarily distracted from looking at the road ahead, lighting is always provided in the direction of travel. That’s because the low beam of the headlamps is programmed to ensure sufficient illumination.
Modern safety lighting already widely accessible today: AFL+ from Opel
Even as Opel is developing eye-tracking as the lighting system of the future, it already provides advanced technologies which ensure optimal night vision and highest driving safety on roads today. Opel has brought a break-through in automotive lighting in offering the current generation of AFL+ in a wide range of models, from the Mokka, Cascada and Zafira Tourer to the Astra and Insignia families, thus once again delivering on the company’s ambition of making premium technologies available to a wider audience. In combination with the Opel Eye front camera, it features up to 10 lighting functions, using Bi-Xenon headlamp beams which automatically adapt to a diverse range of driving situations. For different road and weather conditions, variable light distribution is automatically provided as appropriate for pedestrian areas, city driving, country roads, highways and adverse weather. AFL+ also includes functions such as dynamic curve light, cornering light and the use of energy-saving LED daytime running lights. The direction and intensity of the light beam is adjusted according to both steering angle and vehicle speed. In addition, high beam light assistant switches the headlamps to low beam whenever the forward-facing Opel Eye camera, integrated in the interior mirror mounting, detects the proximity of headlamps or tail-lights of other vehicles. A Light and Visibility Pack also includes automatic low beam lighting, together with tunnel recognition. With this array of automatic lighting functions, AFL+ not only improves the visibility of one’s own vehicle but also reduces driver stress and night-time drowsiness.
Bright as day: The LED Matrix light system
Parallel to refining the proven AFL+ and conducting the development of the future eye-tracking lighting generation, engineers at Opel’s International Technical Development Center in Rüsselsheim are currently completing the final validation tests on their next-generation lighting system for upcoming Opel vehicles. LED Matrix light provides glare-free, high beam lighting, which is automatically and constantly adapted for varying traffic situations. In this way, the LED Matrix light functions with the Opel Eye front camera, but its accuracy and adaptive capacity go one step forward. When light sources are detected from oncoming or preceding traffic, individual LEDs in the relevant zone are deactivated, while the rest of the road remains brightly illuminated. This Opel automotive lighting system turns night into day for drivers without dazzling other road users. It will be introduced within the next 18 months.

Illuminating: New LED light generation makes glare-free high beams the standard
Brightening: First electric car headlamps went into series production 100 years ago
The visionary Monza Concept with its characteristic silhouette and countless different LED technologies shows what the motorist can expect from Opel in future.
100 years of electric headlamps
To see and be seen is absolutely vital – especially now, when daylight hours have become shorter and drivers spend more time on the road in the dark. Advanced lighting technology dramatically increases road traffic safety and Opel is a trendsetter in this area, with state-of-the-art headlamp systems such its highly praised AFL+ (Adaptive Forward Lighting). The Rüsselsheim automaker also makes these systems available in smaller vehicle classes and thus affordable for all drivers.
It’s not only the visionary Monza Concept car, with its characteristic silhouette and numerous different LED technologies, that shows what drivers can expect from Opel in the future. Opel engineers are already going a step further: they are now developing and preparing for the introduction of what is called LED Matrix light. This Opel automotive lighting system of the future turns night into day for drivers without dazzling other road users. It enables drivers to react more quickly and thus prevent impending accidents.
The road to such advanced safety lighting has been a long one. 100 years ago, Bosch first shed light on the darkness of road traffic with the introduction of electric headlamps. Since then, GM and Opel have been at the forefront of the development of trendsetting headlamp systems, actively contributing to ever-increasing safety in road traffic.
Achieving more together: AFL+ and the Opel Eye front camera
The newest generation of AFL+, together with the further developed, higher performance Opel Eye front camera, features up to ten lighting functions and is available in a wide range of Opel vehicles. The sub-compact Mokka SUV and the Astra family boast this highly-praised modern safety lighting, as does the mid-size Cascada convertible, the Zafira Tourer compact van and the new Insignia. This innovative system dramatically increases active safety while reducing night-time driving stress. The variable xenon headlamp beam automatically adapts to diverse driving situations, road and weather conditions with variable light distribution provided for city driving, pedestrian areas, country roads, highways and adverse weather. In addition, AFL+ includes functions such as dynamic curve light, cornering light and energy-saving LED daytime running lights. The direction and intensity of the light beam is adjusted according to the steering angle and vehicle speed. Also part of AFL+, high beam light assistant automatically switches the headlamps to low beam when the forward-facing camera, integrated in the interior mirror mounting, recognizes the headlamps or tail lights of other vehicles. Furthermore, a special Light and Visibility Pack includes automatic low beam lighting with tunnel recognition and a rain sensor.
Bright as day: The LED Matrix light system
One step ahead: With Opel’s LED matrix light system glare-free lighting is standard and adjusts automatically and continuously to every traffic situation.
Engineers at Opel’s International Technical Development Center in Rüsselsheim are now working on their next-generation lighting system for upcoming Opel vehicles. This is again a feature that has hitherto been reserved for vehicles in the luxury class. LED matrix light provides glare-free, high beam lighting which is automatically and constantly adapted for varying traffic situations. In this way, the LED matrix light functions like AFL+ with the Opel Eye front camera. When light sources are detected from oncoming or preceding traffic, individual LEDs in the relevant zone are deactivated, while the rest of the road remains brightly illuminated.
“Right now we are intensively testing this new system in our prototypes,” says Ingolf Schneider, Supervisor Lighting Technology at Opel. Its distinct advantages have also been confirmed in a study conducted by the Department of Lighting Technology at the Technical University of Darmstadt. The study shows that at driving speeds of 80 km/h, objects at the side of the road can be detected around 1.3 seconds faster with the matrix light than with conventional xenon low beam lighting. “This is a good 30 meter difference,” says Schneider. “That almost equals the braking distance required to come to a standstill from 100 km/h.” The matrix light concept will be gradually rolled out across Opel’s car lines in the next few years.
Shedding light on darkness: From Carbide lamps to Adaptive driving light
Dim lighting: With the first cars, just like the Opel patent motorcar, the Lutzmann System, the main objective was not to light up the street, but rather to be able to be seen by other drivers.
But the road to achieving optimal night vision for car drivers was a long one for engineers. What is today taken for granted in road traffic was simply unimaginable over 100 years ago, when lanterns with candles were carried in front of cars. The intention was not to illuminate the road, but rather to be seen by other road users. Later acetylene and carbide lamps cast their dim light on often unpaved roads. It wasn’t until 1913, when Bosch invented the electric headlamp, that light was truly brought into the darkness of road traffic. The Bosch automotive lighting system comprised headlamps, a generator, a battery and a regulator, replacing high-maintenance and dangerous gas lights. The concept used a generator to produce electricity which was stored in the battery and then transmitted to the headlamps. This system laid the foundation on which lighting technology continued to be developed over the coming decades.
For many years, Opel has been a trailblazer in offering state-of-the-art technologies which provide real value for a large customer base. So it was no surprise when Opel became the first automaker to introduce dynamic curve light and 90-degree cornering light with the innovative AFL system in the mid-size class in 2003. The following year 2004, the Opel Astra became the first compact car with adaptive Bi-Xenon lights (include curve light and cornering light), and in 2006 the brand further democratized safety technology when it made Bi-Halogen curve and cornering light available in the minivan and small car segments for the first time in the Meriva and Corsa.
In 2008, the next lighting system generation, AFL+, made its debut with the launch of the Insignia, setting a new standard in the automotive industry. The variable Xenon headlamp light beam distribution adjusts to the road profile, driving speed and prevailing road conditions. The system upgrades offer numerous automatic lighting functions and include LED daytime running lights which require considerably less electrical power, reducing vehicle fuel consumption compared to the use of conventional low beam headlamps. Opel has won the Allianz Deutschland AG “Genius 2010” award as well as the Euro NCAP Advanced Award from the independent consumer organization Euro NCAP (European New Car Assessment Programme) for its safety lighting system.
Overview of Opel safety lighting system AFL+ functions: In addition to signature Opel wing-shaped LED daytime running lights for optimal “be seen” lighting, AFL+ offers the following functions so nothing is left in the dark:
·Pedestrian Area Light is activated automatically at driving speeds between
five and 30 km/h. The function adjusts the cone of light for both headlamps by
eight degrees toward each roadside. With this light, pedestrians and children
playing next to the road – who often cannot properly judge the speed of an
approaching vehicle – can be seen earlier.
·At
speeds under 50 km/h, Town Light
provides a wider, symmetrical beam with reduced range, helping drivers see
pedestrians at the roadside better. The Town Light’s beam intensity is less
than the normal low beam because of the presence of additional light sources
such as street lamps.
·Country Road Light provides a brighter and wider light cone to both
sides of the road than a conventional low beam. This helps drivers see potential
hazards, such as animals, at the sides of the road earlier. It is activated
between 50 and 100 km/h, projecting the light beam 70 meters ahead.
·Highway Light intensifies and slightly raises the headlamp beam
when there is no risk of blinding oncoming traffic and the smoother road
surface causes fewer vehicle body movements. Its light cone creates a 140 meter
long beam, improving illumination of the left-hand roadside while increasing
lighting power from 35 to 38 watts to noticeably improve visibility. Highway
Light activates automatically above 100 km/h, but only when the steering angle
sensor indicates that the road’s curve radii do not match those of a country
road.
·Adverse Weather Light is activated when the rain sensor detects a
certain amount of moisture on the windshield, or the wipers are switched on and
off in rapid succession. The light output is then distributed asymmetrically:
The right headlamp beam intensity increases from 35 to 38 watts so the driver
can see lane markings better. The left headlamp beam decreases from 35 to 32
watts and is shortened slightly to reduce the risk of blinding oncoming
drivers, which often happens on wet, reflective road surfaces.
·High Beam Light provides maximum headlamp beam output and range. It
does not activate asymmetrically, but rather optimally illuminates the full
width of the road. The headlamps brighten from 35 to 38 watts.
·High Beam Light Assistant offers a considerable safety advantage when
driving at night. The Assistant automatically activates the High Beam Light for
better road illumination and improved visibility. The Opel Eye camera
recognizes the headlamps or tail lights of other vehicles and automatically switches
the headlamps to low beam to prevent blinding other road users.
·Dynamic Curve Light ensures improved illumination around bends by
swiveling the bi-xenon headlamps up to 15 degrees right and left of the vehicle
into the oncoming curve. The Curve Light angle is determined by the car’s speed
and steering angle. When combined with the adaptive FlexRide chassis’ Sport
mode, AFL+ responds even more quickly.
·Static Cornering Light is activated at speeds below 40 km/h, or when
reverse gear is engaged. It illuminates an area to the right or left of the
vehicle up to a 90 degree angle, improving visibility when maneuvering in
poorly lit areas, such as dark driveways.
·Intelligent Light Ranging(ILR) uses the front camera to seamlessly
adjust the headlamp low beam distance up to 350 meters for glare-free
illumination.
