The Lighting That Pretends 2.0

October 31, 2025

Recently I already wrote about the lighting that pretends. I had a feeling they’d outdo themselves. And just the other day, I was “lucky” (and there’s really no other word for it) to ride yet another version — or configuration — of this miracle of engineering and design thinking. Are you ready? They’ve added a red LED strip along the windows. Cool, right? Innovation!

But that’s not all.

Now there’s a red strip too!

Huh? What do you think of this design? I even had to squint from how bright the interior was.

Trolleybus interior: bright red seats with the “MAZ” logo

Now, seriously.

When there’s no taste, everything slowly turns into a Christmas tree. Unfortunately, that’s the case here now.
