The "Bi-Xenon" system offers the following advantages in high-beam mode:
? Xenon high-beam headlights
? lowering the beam mask provides a wide and very brightly lit illumination zone even at long
range (particularly important on winding roads)
? supplementary halogen headlights ensure long-range illumination (important when driving at
high speeds along straight roads)
? considerably better switching behaviour when flashing the headlights as well as improved
homogeneity compared to previous gas-discharge systems
The overall impression of the large headlight with typical Porsche design is achieved thanks to an
illumination reflector (to reduce the subjective dazzling of oncoming traffic) and a halogen lamp
which is used for the side marker light and which produces light that perfectly matches the col-
our of the xenon lights.
In comparison:
Top: High beam with halogen headlamps
