Audi will tell you when to slow down to avoid red light

Audi is launching the Green Light Optimization Speed Advisory (GLOSA) system that provides speed recommendations to help you avoid red lights.

The system combines your car’s position and traffic light data to suggest you an ideal speed on the vehicle’s instrument cluster or heads-up display to help you save time by driving slightly slower and avoid any red lights, Engadget reports.

The speed suggestions and Traffic Light Information (TLI) is available as part of an Audi Connect Prime feature on 2017 and newer models outside of the A3 and TT.

The feature is currently permitted only in certain areas including 13 urban regions in the US such as Dallas, Denver, Gainesville, Houston, Kansas City, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, New York (White Plains), Orlando, Phoenix, Portland, the San Francisco Bay Area (Palo Alto and Walnut Creek) and Washington, DC.
