Active ambient package for E W213

Description

Active ambient lighting in the Mercedes-Benz E-Class W213 (produced since 2016) is one of the distinctive features of the interior, which improves both aesthetics and comfort. Here are a few key aspects:

1. 64 colors and dynamic effects: The system offers 64 different colors for ambient lighting, which allows personalization of the atmosphere in the passenger compartment. Colors can change dynamically, including with smooth transitions or special effects, such as a greeting mode when entering the car.
2. Lighting Zones: Lighting is divided into several zones – widescreen cockpit, front seats, rear and general areas. The brightness can be adjusted in five levels, allowing fine-tuning according to preference.
3. A/C integration: Ambient lighting is linked to the climate system, with colors visually indicating temperature – for example blue for cooler and red for warmer, adding an intuitive element to the experience.
4. Improved comfort and aesthetics: The lighting highlights the high-quality materials in the interior (leather, wood, soft plastic) and creates a feeling of luxury, especially at night. It also reduces eye strain on long journeys.
5. Smart functions: The light can react to certain actions, such as opening the doors or starting the engine, and integrates with the digital cockpit to enhance the futuristic feel.

This system is highly regarded for the way it combines functionality and emotional impact.
