On the way ahead
Optional HD Matrix LED headlights with Audi laser light
The HD Matrix LED headlights with Audi laser light, achieve 10 times the luminous intensity. Their bundled rays cast a piece
of day into the night. The range of visibility is doubled with these laser spotlights in comparison to conventional technology.
But it's not just a matter of seeing better: A camera system in the front panel detects light sources in the oncoming traffic
and enables this area to be automatically dimmed. This means that oncoming vehicles will not be exposed to glare. The
dimmed area can be controlled extremely precisely due to an increased number of illuminated segments. It will be smaller
as a result - which also improves your view. All of this functions automatically of course, thus providing a further prerequisite
for relaxed, comfortable, and safe driving at night.
Matrix OLED rear light in 3D design
allows for a special lighting design for the new Audi A8, which leaves its distinctive mark. The OLED technology enables a
homogeneous representation of geometrical shapes, which are infinitely dimmable. The new Audi A8 is unmistakable in the dark
thanks to its LED luminaire in combination with rear lights in OLED technology, also highlighting opening and closing vehicle. It isn't
just the design that is impressive - so are the gains for safety due to better visibility.

46 Audi A8Pre sense 360˚ assistant
The Audi pre sense 360˚ safety system identifies hazards that
threaten the car from all sides and, where necessary, initiates
selective protective measures. A network of numerous sensors
connected via the central driver assistance controller (zFAS)
work in tandem with the mid-range radar sensors on the Audi
A8 vehicle’s corners that can scan distances up to 75 meters.
Together, they provide early warning of objects the car may
collide with, predict the likelihood and moment of impact and
minimize the effects of a crash on occupants by instituting
preventative measures. Pre sense 360˚ closes all side windows
and the sunroof, tightens retractable seatbelts, improves
occupants’ seating position by adjusting the upper backrests,
headrests and energy-absorbing pads well as activating the
hazard lights to warn vehicles approaching from behind. What’s
more, the new active chassis also contributes to mitigating the
effects of a crash. When a side-on collision is imminent, the side
under threat is raised in the blink of an eye so that the impact
occurs at the safest possible location.
