Upcoming Audi A1 LED DRL's

Can a car look concentrated and decisive? Yes, it can. The headlights play an important role in this as they are the eyes of a car. People convey emotions such as happiness, joy and sadness with their eyes. On a car, the lights influence the character of the front end and this also applies to the Audi A1, which in future will be the smallest member of the Audi family. The innovative LED lighting technology provides the designer with completely new levels of freedom. And on the A1, the headlights display decisiveness and concentration, similar to an athlete poised in the starting blocks with a sparkle in the eyes. On the A1, the front gets its character from a completely new form of LED daytime running lights. We have given our newcomer the sportiness of the R8 and the elegance of the A8, says André Georgi, light designer at Audi. The new LED technology with fiber optics enables us to draw extremely precise, continuous lines. In this way complex graphics are created in the interplay between the daytime running lights, the turn signals and the dipped headlights. The form of the daytime running light, also known as the wing, was inspired by the lightness of an eagles wing on the A1. The dipped headlight is incorporated into this graphic element. The turn signal is located a little way below the wing in order to ensure that it is easily visible.
