that volvo at 2:15 looked much better

It really did, much wider and brighter.

Not sure if very bright and wide just in front of the car is actually better in these conditions. Plenty of light just in front of the car will make it harder to spot things at the distance. At these speeds (20m/s or more) and icy roads you need to spot wildlife with some time to react to have any fighting chance to do anything to avoid them. What you actually need is something like the old Audi with a LED bar at 5:55

@@mikahede I’ve never driven in a complete dark snow covered environment. However, I have driven in many complete dark roads here in the US, and let me just point out that width absolutely matters. My stock led F30 headlights were narrow and dim. After I switched to my new headlights the added width provided some much confidence on the road, before I had to use fog lights to help with the width.

@@ramen9996 Yes, driving conditions make a huge difference. I was simply pointing out conditions in the video. For completely dark and mostly empty roads you need range, width just gives confidence but doesn't really give you the time to react. With more traffic you just don't have any benefit with range as you cannot use it without blinding other people. My other car is Audi Q7 with matrix + laser, it has both width and range and I do prefer it over this i4. BMW is really good when there is no one else around, but in traffic Audi is far superior. I did not make this video to praise BMW lights, just to show how they are :)

The ONLY thing I enjoy about modern cars are the improvements in headlight tech. That's IT. Everything else about them I hate.

Are they all by default adaptive?
@mikahede9 ай бұрын
I believe i4 Laserlights are always adaptive, not 100% sure though
@aneeshprasobhan9 ай бұрын
I hate them. Their adaptive lights are always slow to dim, by the time they dim, I'm blind. May be this delay is a problem with their older models ?
@krisg8229 ай бұрын
nope, not just the older models. Same with Audi, Mercedes and others. Let me put it this way - the better your headlights were set, the later the adaptive headlights of the other cars will 'see you'. Smash taht high beam for 1sec and the adaptive headlights of the oncoming traffic will react right away.

@@krisg822 haha, thanks for the tip. But looks the adaptive headlights are doing that to each other but we have to do it manually. :D
@krisg8229 ай бұрын
@@aneeshprasobhan well adaptive versus adaptive is a different story, bcoz both will start with high beam and turn it off, when other high beam is detected....and since both have high beam on, they will detect each other much sooner than you without high beam....

BMW already claimed themselves, in a statement, that laserlight is not the best nor is it the future(or the way to go).

@krisg8229 ай бұрын
would be interesting what speed you were driving, bcoz i been driving Alpina B5 in the past, and the laser light did jump in at 65kmh or so, and there was some difference, so there is a dual system for the high beam...LED and laser

However nice it is to have the road well let. It you've ever been driving longer distances in the dark it gets quite exhausting meeting the constant flood of bright lights. There will hopefully be a restriction on the brightness of the lamps. There is no need for this brightness in the dark to get good visibility.
