Quick Takeaways
  • ZKW Matrix LED headlights power new Audi Q3 with advanced Micro LED lighting.
  • The lighting system combines high-resolution micro-LEDs with intelligent camera-based control.
On January 19, ZKW announced that it is supplying digital Matrix LED headlights for the new Audi Q3. The model features a distinctive two-stage split headlight layout, with LED daytime running lights and turn indicators positioned in the upper section and the primary headlight modules integrated below.
High-resolution Micro LED architecture by ZKW
The advanced lighting module was engineered by ZKW through years of joint research and development with LG Optics. At its core is a highly complex system made up of 25,600 individual micro-LEDs, each measuring just 40 micrometers, enabling extremely precise light distribution and sharp illumination control.
Intelligent light control with Audi assistance systems
  • A front-facing camera continuously identifies oncoming and preceding vehicles.
  • Based on this data, the system selectively deactivates only those LEDs that could cause glare, while maintaining maximum road illumination elsewhere.
The Micro LED technology operates in coordination with Audi driver assistance systems, supporting targeted light projections and enabling Audi-developed lighting functions designed to enhance safety, comfort, and visual communication on the road.
