How to use the Volvo S90 cornering lights?
2 Answers
The usage method of Volvo S90 cornering lights is: when turning the steering wheel, a separate set of bulbs on one side will light up to illuminate the blind spot of the curve. Shortly after the steering wheel returns to the center position, the single-side cornering light will turn off. Taking the 2021 Volvo S90 as an example, it belongs to the mid-to-large-size car category with body dimensions of: length 5090mm, width 1879mm, height 1450mm, wheelbase 3061mm, and fuel tank capacity of 55 liters. The 2021 Volvo S90 features a double-wishbone independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 2.0L turbocharged engine producing maximum horsepower of 250PS, maximum power of 184kW, and maximum torque of 350Nm.
As a seasoned Volvo driver with years of experience, I find the S90's cornering light operation quite intelligent. It's actually controlled by the adaptive headlight system and doesn't require manual switching: just set your headlights to auto mode, and when driving below approximately 40km/h, the cornering lights will automatically activate with steering wheel movement or turn signal activation. They particularly illuminate the road in turning areas during curves, enhancing nighttime visibility. You can verify whether this feature is enabled in the vehicle menu's lighting options on the central display. In daily driving, this function significantly reduces blind spots on urban roads, making it very convenient—just remember not to block the front sensors to avoid accidental activation. Overall, it makes steering safer and more reliable.
