An illumination device for vehicles having a housing including an opening edge which is connected to a transparent closing disc via a sealant and/or adhesive, wherein a number of light sources and reflectors are arranged in the housing, wherein each light source is associated with a single reflector for deflecting the light radiated from the light source in a main radiation direction of the illumination device corresponding to a predetermined light distribution, wherein the reflector has a reflector surface with a basic shape including a plurality of facets (13, 14), wherein the reflector has a first reflector segment including a reflector surface with a first basic shape for generating a first partial light distribution on the one hand and a second reflector segment including a reflector surface with a second, different basic shape for generating a second partial light distribution on the other hand, wherein the first basic shape of the first reflector segment is formed for generating the first partial light distribution designed as near field illumination and the second basic shape of the second reflector segment is formed for generating the second partial light distribution designed as far field illumination, wherein the facets of the first reflector segment have a smaller dimension than the facets of the second reflector segment, wherein the reflector has at least two first reflector segments and at least two second reflector segments, wherein the number of first reflector segments and of second reflector segments is the same and wherein the first reflector segments and the second reflector segments each extend in pairs in an arch shape from opposing sides of the light source toward the closing disc, wherein a pair of first reflector segments is arranged symmetrically to a vertical center plane (Mv) of the reflector and a pair of second reflector segments is arranged symmetrically to a horizontal center plane (M H) of the reflector, characterized in that the first reflector segment and the second reflector segment run semi-circularly under an acute ring angle (φ1, φ2) when projected onto a plane which is perpendicular to the main radiation direction, in that the ring angle (φ 1) of the first reflector segment is smaller than the ring angle (φ 2) of the second reflector segment, and in that the first reflector segments and the second reflector segments are alternatingly arranged in the circumferential direction of the reflector. wherein a number of light sources and reflectors are arranged in the housing, wherein each light source is associated with a single reflector for deflecting the light radiated from the light source in a main radiation direction of the illumination device corresponding to a predetermined light distribution, wherein the reflector has a reflector surface with a basic shape including a plurality of facets (13, 14), wherein the reflector has a first reflector segment including a reflector surface with a first basic shape for generating a first partial light distribution on the one hand and a second reflector segment including a reflector surface with a second, different basic shape for generating a second partial light distribution on the other hand, wherein the first basic shape of the first reflector segment is formed for generating the first partial light distribution designed as near field illumination and the second basic shape of the second reflector segment is formed for generating the second partial light distribution designed as far field illumination, wherein the facets of the first reflector segment have a smaller dimension than the facets of the second reflector segment, wherein the reflector has at least two first reflector segments and at least two second reflector segments, wherein the number of first reflector segments and of second reflector segments is the same and wherein the first reflector segments and the second reflector segments each extend in pairs in an arch shape from opposing sides of the light source toward the closing disc, wherein a pair of first reflector segments is arranged symmetrically to a vertical center plane (Mv) of the reflector and a pair of second reflector segments is arranged symmetrically to a horizontal center plane (M H) of the reflector, characterized in that the first reflector segment and the second reflector segment run semi-circularly under an acute ring angle (φ1, φ2) when projected onto a plane which is perpendicular to the main radiation direction, in that the ring angle (φ 1) of the first reflector segment is smaller than the ring angle (φ 2) of the second reflector segment, and in that the first reflector segments and the second reflector segments are alternatingly arranged in the circumferential direction of the reflector.
