New Opel Combo Now with Advanced IntelliLux LED Matrix Light

• IntelliLux LED: Opel Combo first in class to offer advanced headlamp technology
• Power with precision: IntelliLux LED headlamps superior to conventional lighting
• New Combo style: IntelliLux LED Matrix Light as integral part of Opel Vizor brand fascia

When it comes to driving safely in low visibility, Opel is “go-to” brand. Headlamps with adaptive, glare-free IntelliLux LED technology can be found in all classes of car from German carmaker, beginning with best-selling Opel Corsa and eye-catching Opel Mokka.

Latest generation lighting technology, IntelliLux LED Pixel Light, is offered on Opel Astra,  Opel Astra Sports Tourer and Opel Grandland SUV.

In a further demonstration of how Opel makes innovations available to a wide range of customers, the brand with Blitz is bringing IntelliLux LED Matrix Light to its newest generation of compact vans. New Opel Combo Electric people mover and new Opel Combo Cargo Electric light commercial vehicle (as well as LCV’s combustion engine siblings) are thus first in their respective market segments to offer such state-of-the-art technology. Optimum forward vision at night or in bad weather is ensured, regardless of the reason for the journey.

Headlamps with IntelliLux LED Matrix Light are not only safer, they also look good too, as they form an integral component of Opel Vizor, the characteristic brand front fascia which is making its Opel LCV premiere on Combo Cargo.

Comprising 14 individually controllable LED elements (seven per side), IntelliLux LED Matrix Light of Opel Combo, as well as new Opel Corsa and Opel Mokka, ensures a brightly illuminated driving experience that precisely “cuts” other road users out of high beam.

IntelliLux LED technology is superior to conventional lighting systems because it is more precise and more powerful. As soon as car leaves urban areas, matrix headlamps automatically switch to high beam. Length and distribution of light cone is continuously adapted to driving conditions. When another car’s lights are detected, individual LEDs intuitively switch off to “delete” car from high beam and avoid dazzling other drivers.

Thanks to IntelliLux LED technology, drivers of new Opel Combo always benefit from an optimum view of road ahead. They can drive with high beam switched on all time and can also see objects at roadside, which gives them more time to react, for example if an animal should unexpectedly cross road.
