Headlights
halogen headlights utilising free-form technology with
clear glass covers, electric headlight range control
and parking light function, daytime running lights
with separate reflectors
adaptive light
Working within system limits, the dynamic cornering
light identifies the course of the road. The headlights
swivel – depending on the steering angle – towards the
curve and in this way variably illuminate the course of
the curve. The adaptive light is operational between
speeds of approx. 10 km/h and 110 km/h. Includes
turning light, which switches on automatically if the
indicators have been engaged for some time and
illuminates the new direction of travel.
xenon plus including headlight cleaning system
The headlights with durable gas discharge technology
for dipped and high beam enable an intensive
illumination of the road with evenness and range, in
a colour resembling daylight both close-up and in the
distance. The automatic-dynamic headlight beam
control prevents oncoming traffic from being dazzled;

High-beam assist
working within system limits, automatically detects
the headlights of oncoming traffic, the rear lights of
other road users and built-up areas. Depending on

thanks to the extra comfort and convenience.
