Automatic headlamps - Hotwheelsvespa - 23-03-2014 09:06pm

Ive just ordered a pure tech coupe for delivery in april, can anyone tell me if automatic headlamps operate high and low beam as well as turning on and off, thanks

Automatic Headlamps and High Beam assist are separate options.on <14MY cars

If your Pure Tech is a 14MY then:-

Automatic Headlamps with High Beam Assist (AHBA)
Driving at night or in poor visibility is made easier by Automatic High Beam Assist (AHBA). When external light levels dip below a certain threshold, AHBA automatically switches on and headlamps automatically dip for oncoming traffic, reverting when vehicles have passed.

Regards
Mark

According to MY14 brochure. They are 2 different features. 1 = auto headlights 2 = auto headlights with high beam assist. #2 is a paid option on all models

Thanks foe that, looked it up but will end up adding £1100 to the order as have to be upgraded to xenons

Xenons are a good option to go for

Are the halogens that bad?


RE: Automatic headlamps - cjfp - 24-03-2014 05:58am

I can say that the xenons are good, and do a site search and you will find the threads on people's views of the halogens, along with threads of people upgrading their halogens

Oh, thats a shame on a £40k plus car!!!!!

I have just taken delivery of my pure tech , with xenons but no high beam assist
Think it's another option somewhere

Hi,I have a MY 14 SD4 Pure Tech Plus and ordered Xenon headlights which also come with LED running lights.
The Zenon's are worth every penny as they give a brilliant light on both main/dipped beam.
