Automotive lighting and electronics specialist 226 Hella is providing an optional full-LED headlamp system with adaptive front lighting for the 2011 Audi A6. The company’s ‘intelligent’ LED lighting technology is one of four headlight systems the company supplies to 2125 Audi for the A6. Relying on 64 LEDs to provide light distribution for a variety of driving situations, the system generates light that is considerably closer to actual daylight than light from other systems, improving driver vision during evening hours and increasing overall comfort and safety.
