Audi R8 V10 Is First All-LED Car

The Audi R8 V10 is proud to be the first car in the world that features all-LED headlamps, running lights and turn indicators. The benefits are plenty – LED headlights are four times more energy efficient compared to traditional halogen headlights, and they also feature a practically indefinite service life, so you won’t have to worry (too much) about blown lamps and additional maintenance costs. These LEDs can be adjusted to be more or less bright electronically, allowing you to have the optimal driving experience at all times. It is hoped that future versions of LED headlights are able to react to variables including weather conditions, speed and distance between vehicles for added safety on the road. Other parts of the Audi R8 V10 that uses LED lighting include footwells, light and rain sensors and the LED engine compartment lighting. We wonder which automobile manufacturer will adopt this technology next.
