Macan new LED lights

[Fish]

Wonder if anyone can comment on the new standard NON PDLS LED lights... we have a car with xenon PDLS and are wondering whether we need to bother as my wife thinks the standard LED will be fine...

Does anyone have the standard new LED lights and care to comment how good or not they are?

Cheers

Hi Fish, my MAC Gts just went, had the LED assisted - SUPERB.
Just taken delivery of C4 Gts with zenon assisted, underwhelmed, should have got the LED’s

Cheers Midas I assume you mean the LED PDLS whcih I have had on a 991 and they were stunning, just really after the feedback on the standard non PDLS LED .

I know they won't be as good as the PDLS version just wondered what people thought of them.

If they are the same as the standard LED headlights on the new Cayenne, then I’m happy with them.

If I was doing it again I would stick with them.

Coming from a BMW 6 GC with the fully adaptive LED headlights.

I'd say stick with standard, or go the whole hog on matrix LEDs. I've never been that impressed by the slight steering and beam shaping from PDLS (I have PDLS LEDs on my 991), and would say that just having the bright LEDs would be almost as good. The matrix lights on the other hand are like witchcraft, as you can drive on full beam almost all the time, but then they're a huge amount of money if you don't drive a lot on dark, unlit roads.

I’ve got PDLS LED’s on my 991 and on my Macan Turbo PP....they’re much better on the Macan. The shape of the beam alters a lot more based on road speed and if cornering. I have a terrible box ticking habit and wouldn’t bother with PDLS on a 911 (shape of headlight unit restricts functionality available I think) .

Back to the OP’s question. Standard LED’s will be excellent but PDLS will be superb.

Right, think I will stick with the Standard as I will not be driving it that much.. anyhow looking forward to the new motor...
