Abstract

A lighting device for a motor vehicle, wherein the lighting device has a circuit board with a multiplicity of light-emitting diodes arranged thereon, a transparent optical layer, and a reflector element, wherein the reflector element is arranged between the circuit board and the optical layer, wherein the reflector element has multiple segments into which the reflector element is subdivided, wherein a segment is associated with each light-emitting diode so that light emitted by the light-emitting diodes can be reflected by the reflector element and can pass through the optical layer. Two light-emitting diodes are arranged in a segment. In addition, a lighting system and a motor vehicle are provided.
