New Leon ST 2026 -> no dynamic lights and no wireless charging

[NervEasy]

Yesterday I went to collect my new Leon ST 2026, all is well but to my surprise, the lightbar has no animation on unlock and the turn signals are not dynamic. Also there is no wireless charging spot in the center console. This area seems to be redesigned and just gets 2 usb c ports?

Is this normal? (Can the dynamic turn signales be coded?)

Sincerely

Have you double checked the settings? From memory if you go to Vehicle settings on the Infotainment Screen (you will see the car graphic). And then choose Exterior (you may need to swipe right) then Lighting, there should be an option for the Light Bar Animation, change to Animation 1 and also an option for the Indicators Classic or Dynamic.

Thanks for your answer.

I'll double check but there are very limited options under lighting. I have the matrix headlights (they work) but even those have only one option, I can choose between slow medium and fast switching. I don't remember seeing an option for the animations. I'll update this thread with a picture this afternoon.

this is the view I get when chosing lighting in the car menu (sorry for the dutch language). But no options for any animations

Hi

From your picture I believe you need to go back a level and you should see a screen like the one attached (may differ in Belgium).

But if get this select Exterior >> Headlights >> Comfort Lights >> Animation 1 (you may need to scroll the screen up) this should give you the lightbar animation.

But you see at the bottom the 4 dots, there are other 3 more option screens to the right and you may need to check those screens as the placement may be different in Belgium. There are a few videos on You Tube showing the process as well - hope you get it working

Thank you for your answer, however under comfort lights I only get 2 sliders for coming home and leaving home lighting (not sure what those do though), I think. I'll check this evening.

No animation settings in that menu

Think it's worth a visit to the dealership.

Well i’m not sure it should have it though. I thought the FR edition would have that but there is nowhere that it says that has these features on any document. Maybe someone with a 2025-2026 FR can chime in?
