Default Ambient Lighting Question

I see on the spec sheet that the Premium model Q8 only has the "Ambient LED interior lighting package" instead of the more premium "Contour/Ambient LED interior lighting package—multicolor" which is standard on the Premium Plus and higher models. I have only driven the Premium Plus Q8 at night and I was impressed with the ambient lighting. I understand that for the basic "Ambient LED interior lighting package" on the Premium model you cannot change the LED colour. However, I was wondering if anyone can tell me if the the basic ambient lighting package still retains the thin strips of light right above the wood trim around the interior door latch. I believe on the Q7 these white light strips are still included with the basic white ambient lighting package (see photo below) and was curious if this was the case with the Q8 as well.

Thanks in advance!


This is the light strip I am referring to.

Yes I believe so. I was wondering if the Q8 ambient lighting blinks when cars are in you blind spot like the q7 does, anyone know?

The ambient lighting blinks if you park, open a door and it senses traffic, but it does not flash while driving. Only the mirror side light flashes.
