Xenon see a bit longer for the main headlights, but the LED high beams are definitely better.
They're both really good... but I feel like Audi has done a ****ty job on the Xenon headlight this year just so ppl upgrade to the LED.
For me if I didn't get the LED package, I would have regretted it... a lot.

independent test showed that xenon still has more range than LED headlight.
but audi could have mess up the xenon focus on purpose to make people get LED.
i have the xenon, and i don't have any issue with it. it is bright and the range is good

Hawe you tested led or driven with led

Mitchfin

That is only for lo beams, and leds have more light coverage.

IIHS published a test of both headlight types. They found differences but rated both as "marginal."

Mitchfin

Also important to note that the IIHS won't allow advanced headlights like matrix beams in America and then publish test that make it seem like "all headlights are bad!"

Mitchfin

Also the headlights with auto high beam (available to all of us for $60) got Acceptable ratings.

I think perhaps you are mixing up the IIHS with the NHTSA.

Well, I haven't read all of the studies or looked at all of the data, but my LED headlights seem really good to me. Everyone who has driven or rode in my car at night has commented on the great headlights. So I think the LED's work pretty darn well.

I realize that's not real scientific but in this instance it works for me.
