Exterior lighting

Light that shapes safety, design and communication 

Modern vehicles rely on increasingly sophisticated exterior lighting systems that enhance safety, improve communication, and create distinctive design and light signatures. From forward‑lighting systems such as low- and high-beam headlights and adaptive driving beams, to daytime running lights, turn indicators, rear combination lamps and additional functions like ground illumination or car body accent lighting, each application contributes to how a vehicle is seen, understood, and experienced. 

ams OSRAM enables this evolution with high‑performance LEDs, lasers, micro‑LEDs and intelligent driver ICs that deliver brightness, uniformity, efficiency, and robust automotive‑grade reliability. Our solutions support classic signaling functions, dynamic communication displays, personalized styling elements and high‑resolution lighting technologies that shape the next generation of automotive mobility.
