The car is equipped with a single system of LED-lamps, which are used in the optics head, tail lights and interior lighting. By analogy with the “truck of the future”, which was introduced last year, the LEDs will be able to “communicate” with other road users. For example, if F 015 is under the control of man – white lamp light, and in the case of traffic on autopilot – blue.
