Audi Q5's Intelligent Digital OLED 2.0 Rear Lights Equipped with Atala Digital Technology

ROCHESTER, N.Y., Sept. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- OLEDWorks, the global leader in high-performance, multi-stack organic light-emitting diode (OLED) technology, is proud to announce its collaboration with Audi to supply Atala Digital 2.0 panels, to enable Audi's rear combination lamps featured on the all-new Audi Q5.

Unveiled in the 2(nd) half of 2024, the latest generation of Audi's popular mid-size Q5 SUV and Sportback sets a new benchmark in lighting design, personalization, and safety. At the heart of this innovation are six, second-generation digital OLED panels, designed by Audi and delivered by OLEDWorks under the Atala brand. With a total of 266 individually controllable segments, Q5 drivers are able to generate up to eight different light signatures including the new active digital light signature where a special algorithm is used to create a new lighting pattern multiple times per second. The Atala lighting technology transforms Q5 taillights into intelligent, communicative displays.

"Our Atala Digital 2.0 panels enable remarkable visual performance in the Audi Q5," said David DeJoy, CEO of OLEDWorks. "With higher resolution pixels, and ultra-slim form factors, our OLED technology enhances both the emotional appeal and functional safety of the vehicle."

Key Innovations Enabled by OLEDWorks' Atala Digital Technology:

--  Digital Light Signatures: The Q5 offers up to eight customizable rear light signatures, each with its own "Coming Home" and "Leaving Home" lighting scenario, allowing drivers to personalize their vehicle's visual identity.
--  Vehicle-to-X (V2X) Communication Light: The second-generation Digital OLED rear lights now include enhanced communication that displays warning symbols in critical situations, alerting nearby drivers to hazards such as accidents or breakdowns.
--  Uniform, Glare-Free Illumination: OLED panels provide high-resolution, high-contrast lighting without bulky optics, supporting Audi's sleek exterior design.
--  Seamless Integration with Audi's Lighting Design: The OLED panels work in harmony with Audi's lighting algorithms to create fluid, vivid impression that give the Q5's lighting a distinct personality.

"Atala Digital 2.0 panels turn the Q5's taillights into an intelligent communication display," added Wolfgang Görgen, Managing Director at OLEDWorks GmbH.

With the new Audi Q5 family, Audi not only underlines its leading role in lighting design and technology but also goes one step further. The rear lights have a three-dimensional design, spectacularly bringing together the physical and digital worlds, which spans the entire width of the vehicle.
