HELLA has developed a comprehensive lighting package for the Enyaq iV together with Škoda. The main focus is on the dynamic illumination of the radiator grille. In addition to the grille lighting, the comprehensive lighting package that HELLA has put into series production for the Škoda Enyaq iV also includes front and rear lighting. Depending on the version, this also includes sophisticated matrix LED headlamps and full LED rear combination lamps that also implement dynamic lighting functions. In addition, HELLA also supplied the vehicle access system and radar sensors for the electric SUV.
The grille lighting has been available to customers since fall 2021, initially as an optional extra. In the RS and coupe versions of the Enyaq iV, which are currently being launched, the illuminated radiator grille is integrated as standard.
The illuminated radiator grille is realized by 131 individual LEDs that couple into a thick-walled EdgeLight light guide and illuminate the 18 vertical ribs and a horizontal band of the grille. Together with the surface texture of the ribs, this creates the crystal effect characteristic of the radiator grille. While driving, the dynamic grille lighting supports the functionalities of the main headlamp and illuminates the road area. When opening and closing the vehicle, it also implements coming-home and leaving-home animations.
