Acura RLX Auto High-Beam System 2018 Sedan Specification

The 2018 Acura RLX Sedan is equipped with an advanced Auto High-Beam System designed to enhance nighttime driving safety and convenience. This system utilizes a forward-facing camera, strategically mounted behind the rearview mirror, to detect oncoming vehicles and ambient lighting conditions. When the system identifies low ambient light, it automatically activates the high beams to provide maximum road illumination. Conversely, upon detecting headlights of approaching vehicles or tail lights of preceding cars, it seamlessly dims to low beams to prevent blinding other drivers. This intelligent transition ensures optimal visibility without manual intervention from the driver, contributing to a safer driving experience.

The Auto High-Beam System in the Acura RLX integrates seamlessly with other advanced driver-assistance systems, such as Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Keeping Assist, to provide a comprehensive safety suite. The camera's high-resolution imaging capabilities allow for precise detection and swift adjustments, even in varied weather conditions, ensuring continuous performance. Additionally, the system includes a manual override feature, enabling the driver to disable automatic high-beam functionality if preferred. By combining cutting-edge technology with user-friendly controls, the Acura RLX's Auto High-Beam System exemplifies innovation in automotive lighting solutions.
