Starting January 1, 2026, drivers in Spain will be required to replace traditional emergency triangles with the new V16 emergency light, a device designed to enhance road safety. This measure, promoted by the General Directorate of Traffic (DGT), aims to facilitate the signaling of vehicles in emergency situations.
Erum Vial has been selected by Repsol as the exclusive supplier of the connected LedOne V16 beacon, which will gradually be available at Repsol service stations across the country. The beacon, manufactured in Alcoy, Alicante, is made from 100% recycled plastic, reaffirming their commitment to sustainability.
The elevated design of the LedOne emergency light ensures visibility in difficult conditions, such as fog or snow. Additionally, it features an innovative dual mounting system, allowing installation on various types of vehicles. It also includes a side reflective accessory, ideal for trucks and vans.
A key aspect of this device is its connectivity with the DGT 3.0 platform via Vodafone’s NB-IoT technology, which allows automatic alerts to be sent to other drivers and emergency services. This eliminates the need for users to exit their vehicles to set up emergency triangles. Furthermore, the LedOne app provides functionalities such as direct contact with emergency services and confirmation of connection with the DGT, thus enhancing the driver’s experience.
Erum Vial and Repsol plan to expand their presence in the European market, with an eye toward the future commercialization of the V16 emergency light in Portugal, where it is also expected to become a mandatory device. Juan Manuel Erum, CEO of Erum Vial, has expressed that this collaboration with Repsol is an important step toward improving road safety and promotes a more environmentally friendly mobility model.
