system.
Picture no:
Curve lighting
The Xenon light beam pivots based on
steering wheel position and speed (from
approx. 6 mph (10 km/h)).
The headlights shine at an angle of up
to 15° to the right or left of the direction
of travel.
Motorway lighting
At higher speeds and continuous
straight ahead travel, the dipped beam
automatically raises slightly, thereby
increasing headlight range.
