Audi flicks the switch on Quattro Sport Laserlight concept

Audi unveils powerful new laser high beam headlight technology

Audi's new laserlight technology is set to make the future three times brighter bringing high beams that can stretch a distance of five football fields

Audi has demonstrated their vision for how we'll defeat the darkness on the roads in the future, introducing innovative new laser light technology that is three times as powerful as LED lights at CES 2014.

The German car manufacturers took the covers off their new laser-powered lights which boast an output of 1,200 lumens, almost double the range of standard LED high beams.

They will be the first company to put this laser technology into production with the system one day replacing LED lights across their range.

The new lighting system outputs beams that are three times stronger than LEDs with beams capable of reaching distances of over five football fields.
