s Control Display with 6.5-inch screen in LCD technology presenting functions

operated by the Controller, such as informa-

tion from the on-board computer or radio

settings.

This sophisticated light system ensures

much better illumination of the road ahead

and to the side. Xenon headlights in ellipsoid

technology offer a very high standard of light

intensity and a very smooth, consistent

spread of light on the road.

loudspeaker systems, the navigation system

and the TV function as well as the optional

internet-based services (even while driving).
