Mercedes has developed the next generation of its existing LED headlights. What is currently a 24 LED unit in the CLS will soon hold upto 84 LEDs, and provide far better illumination.
Mercedes also confirmed plans to use high-range LED high beams along with their LED units in the near future. It claims to illuminate over 600m, and not distract oncoming vehicles.
"Enabling ideal visibility in all driving situations without dazzling other road users has always been our credo in developing new light systems," said Uwe Kostanzer, head of light systems development at Mercedes-Benz. “We are pursuing the further development of LED technology to this end.”
