Compared to the previous generation product, the new ATX has achieved a significant volume reduction of nearly 60%, which makes it much easier to integrate into the headlamp.

Marelli will be hosting live demonstrations of the new headlamp concept with Hesai LiDAR integration at the Auto China 2024.
