What are adaptive headlights?

If you're wondering what adaptive headlights or automatic high beams are, this article will enlighten you. In recent years, manufacturers have worked very hard to improve the safety of motorists and one of the elements of this work is the improvement of visibility on the road.

Adaptive Headlights

Adaptive headlights are quite simple to understand. These are front lights that have the ability to turn left or right following the steering wheel in turns to better illuminate what is coming when we are on a winding road at night. It is a simple technology, but very effective.
