Adaptive light
The adaptive light works as a dynamic corner-
sensitive headlight. With the dynamic cornering
headlight, the headlight projection module is
pivoted horizontally by an integrated motor.
The headlight lenses and the bracket do not turn.
The pivot angle is approx. 15° on the inner curve
side and 7.5° on the outer curve side.
The various pivot angles have advantages in that
they provide better lighting for corner routes.
In this case, the inner-curve module pivots in twice
as much as the outer-curve module.
This achieves the maximum possible illumination
width with homogeneous light distribution.
No pivoting when vehicle is stationary
The projection modules are not pivoted at driving
speeds of < 6 km/h.
The pivot angle essentially depends on the steering
wheel angle at speeds of more than 10 km/h.
This complies with the legal requirement that the
headlights must not be pivoted when the vehicle is
stationary. At the same time, a slight transition to
headlight pivoting occurs during acceleration from
idle when the steering lock remains constant.
