to 2328

Focusing on MULTIBEAM LED luminaires, Euro6 engines, the new 9G-TRONIC automatic transmission and upgraded safety systems, the renewed Mercedes CLS was unveiled.

The main highlight of the renewed version of the CLS is the MULTIBEAM LED luminaires when Mercedes released the first teaser image of its renewed model. We remind you that each luminaire has 1 LED lamps, each of which is electronically and autonomously controlled. With a camera and 24 control units, the lights are adjusted 4 times per second, with the system detecting oncoming vehicles, adjusting the brightness so that they are not blinded. In addition, it senses the turns beforehand and illuminates them before the vehicle turns, and as soon as the navigation system "sees" squares, the headlights adjust accordingly.
