Let there be light

In the car, LEDs with different brightness are used for lighting devices and signaling devices. The headlights are installed in pairs symmetrically on the right and left side of the vehicle. The headlight is made in a single housing, which combines: low beam, high beam, side light, direction indicator and daytime running the lights. The dipped beam is asymmetrical, with right-hand traffic, the right side of the road and the side of the road are better illuminated. The main beam is a symmetrical, high-intensity light beam.

The side light is used to indicate the dimensions of the vehicle. A turn signal repeater is provided on the side of the vehicle. All direction indicators work synchronously. A yellow light source with flashing mode is used as a turn signal. The pointer operates at 2 flashes per second. Direction indicators are also used as an emergency stop signal. The daytime running lights are manually controlled low beam headlights.

The socalled adaptive brake light, in which the light intensity is dependent on the intensity of the braking. The reversing light provides illumination when the vehicle is reversing. Automatically activated when reverse mode is engaged. Two symmetrical white reversing lights are installed. Rear fog lamps are used to warn vehicles driving behind in poor visibility conditions.
