My EQS learned a new trick!

961 miles and 4 weeks in, this happened out of nowhere. I park in an underground garage at my office and this has never happened.

You have to download the attached MOV file. It was a very cool animation from the LED Matrix headlights. I only get the one that looks like some rainfall.

I really wish MB would update everyone's firmware to get these newer features like every other >$100k EV companies.

How? Is the rainfall animation gone now? Does it alternate between the two? Is the a different one for locking and unlocking the car?

Did you happen to bring your car in for service, recently, and they maybe updated the firmware? Or is there a chance it has always done this and you never noticed?

So, does the EQS 580 have all these digital light features? I haven’t done much night driving yet, but it would be great if these features are included. If all this is true, I can see why the night driving assist (option on W222) is no longer needed since it automatically recognizes pedestrians or animals.
