Exterior lighting

Active bending lights

Active bending lights are designed to provide additional illumination in bends and junctions.

Active main beam

Active main beam uses the camera sensor in the upper edge of the windscreen. The camera sensor registers the headlamp beams from oncoming traffic or the rear lights of vehicles ahead, and then switches from main beam to dipped beam, or adaptive functionality.

Using direction indicators

The car's direction indicators are operated with the left-hand stalk switch. The direction indicator lamps flash three times or continuously, depending on how far up or down the stalk switch is moved.

Brake lights

The brake light automatically comes on during braking.

Rear fog lamp

The rear fog lamp is considerably stronger than a normal rear light and should only be used in reduced visibility due to fog, snow, smoke or dust so that other road users have an early warning of a vehicle ahead.

Front fog lamps/cornering lights

The front fog lamps can be activated in order to provide better visibility when driving in fog. The cornering lights come on automatically in weak daylight or darkness in order to illuminate the area diagonally in front of the car.

Dipped beam

When driving with the stalk switch's rotating ring in the position, dipped beam is activated automatically in weak daylight or darkness.

Using main beam

Main beam is operated with the left-hand stalk switch. Main beam is the car's strongest lighting and should be used when driving in the dark for better visibility, as long as it does not dazzle other road users.

Using home safe lighting

Some of the exterior lighting can be kept switched on to work as home safe lighting after the car has been locked.

Adapting the headlamp pattern from the headlamps

The headlamp pattern for headlamps with pixel technology can be reset when changing from right-hand to left-hand traffic, and vice versa. This function adapts the light from the headlamps to reduce the risk of dazzling oncoming traffic. The headlamp pattern for headlamps without pixel technology does not need to be reset when changing from right-hand to left-hand traffic, and vice versa.

Emergency brake lights

Emergency brake lights are activated to alert vehicles behind about heavy braking. The function means that the brake light flashes instead of - as in normal braking - shining with a constant glow.

Position lamps

Position lamps can be used so that other road users can see the car if it stops or is parked. The position lamp is switched on with the rotating ring on the stalk switch.

Welcome light and Farewell light

Welcome lighting is switched on when the car is unlocked, and farewell lighting is activated when the driver leaves the car.

Hazard warning flashers

Hazard warning flashers warn other road users by means of all of the car's direction indicators being activated simultaneously. The function can be used to give a warning in the event of traffic hazards.

Daytime running lights

The car has sensors that detect the light conditions in the surroundings. With the stalk switch's rotating ring in position , or , the daytime running lights are switched on. In position , the headlamps change automatically to dipped beam in weak daylight or darkness.
