LED Rear lamps
Beside this constant innovation for design and safety, Valeo has also developed less power consuming products in order to help decrease CO2 emissions. The special focus here is the use of LED for signaling functions. LED fast response time is reducing the braking distance of the following driver by 5m at 90 km/h (60 mph) speed. LED rear lighting helps save 0.5 g CO2/km compared to Tungsten bulbs. The penetration of LED technology is older and stronger for signaling products than for headlamps.
LED Rear lamps
LED technology for rear lighting is a high performance solution with a range of benefits. It offers car makers opportunities to achieve distinctive styling for each car model and to exploit the numerous lighting combinations that LED technology offers.
The faster response time of LED contributes to improved safety and their long life makes LED a consumer-convenient alternative to conventional rear light cluster designs. Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) provide a very efficient light for less power consumption than normal Tungsten bulbs with extended design possibilities thanks to their compact size.
