When VW say multi led headlight technology I think what they mean is led main beam, led indicators and led DRL's.
This is what they were referring to, out of a VW press pdf for the Passat. Sorry, it won't link for me.
"4.
Multi-beam lens module. The centrepiece of these headlights is the
outer multi-beam lens module. In addition to the dimmed and full beams (with adapted country road and motorway light), the module also generates the dynamic cornering light. The inner flat-beam lens module, meanwhile, is responsible for illuminating the road up ahead.
5. LED headlights plus Dynamic Light Assist (level 3). In the top version, these all-LED projection headlights are additionally controlled via vehicle camera. Volkswagen is for the first time combining Dynamic Light Assist (automatic permanent full beam) with LED technology. The camera recognises any traffic in front and any vehicles in opposing traffic; this data is evaluated by the headlight electronics which coordinate the light distribution via the cornering light controller and pivoting
multi-beam lens module.
6. Daytime running light consists of 32 LEDs (level 3). Another highlight of the projection LED headlights is the daytime running light with 32 LEDs. Its signature is made up of two separate modules: a large 'U' (that goes around the lens module) and a small 'U', which frames the contour of the
multi-beam lens module. Beneath the daytime running light the wide indicators (twelve LEDs) emphasise the headlight's design. LEDs for the static cornering light are also positioned on the inner side of the headlight."
That's more than likely the wide angle lens on the dashcam, it looked spot on to me and other than the two hotspots directly in front which you can see on some bumpy bits the spread was even and the range was excellent.
Thanks eatontrifles. It is so hard to tell from dashcam footage. Even on my monitor.
