A system for indicating an operating mode of a motor vehicle having a vehicle interior and an operator seat disposed therein includes a rotatable steering wheel disposed within the vehicle interior relative to the operator seat. The steering wheel includes a front side facing the operator seat and an opposing rear side. The system also includes a light source configured to project a light beam onto a rear side of the steering wheel. The rear side of the steering wheel is configured to capture the light beam and thereby illuminate the front side of the steering wheel to generate a sensory signal indicative of an operating mode to a vehicle operator positioned on the operator seat. Also disclosed is a motor vehicle employing the system for generating a sensing signal to a vehicle operator to indicate an operating mode of the vehicle.
