I have the Adaptive LED's and have been very impressed so far, best lights I have had on a car so far. See all kinds of wildlife just off the side of the road that I have not ween with other lights. Impressed

I am confused. I just ordered my M340i and I had 2 options, standard LED's, or the Laser ones. In the beginning of this thread it states there's (3) options. I'm only seeing the (2) for the US. Am I missing something?

It looks like the M340i comes standard with the mid-level LED Headlights with Cornering Lights, where the 330i comes standard with base LED Headlights without Cornering. So for the M340i, the only other option would be the top-level BMW Laserlight.

Thought I should add my comments here.
Ive done about 3k Kms in the car already, in Germany, were its almost always dark ahah. I have the Lazer Lights and they are a big step up from the LEDs. HUGE Difference I cannot emphasize that enough. Now the regular LEDs are great in Highbeam settings, when you dont have another frame of reference. They are good, just not as good as the Laser highbeam, because they are on another level of brightness and projection. If you drive a lot at night, the Laser lights will be 110% worth it, and honestly even if you dont drive a lot at night they are worth it. The power of these headlights is something that you will sorely miss once you have used them.

Hello everyone,
I just ordered my first BMW the 330e! For tax reasons I'm not able to choose anything but the base headlights(there is a special m-sport equipment package to keep the cost under a certain point)... Does anyone know if it is possible to upgrade to adaptive headlights on a later date? Thanks for the help! |

Adaptive LED headlights
Help!
I've been trying to figure out when/how the smaller front facing lamp is for. I've never seen it turn on. So the main head lamp (outer most side) is the one thats on and adaptive and functions as high beam, then the one right next to it which I've never seen on and then the smaller lamp (inner most, closest to grill) turns on when reversing or turning for pedestrian. What is that lamp in the middle for? I've never seen it turn on. |

It's a BMW trademark, kind of like the hoffmeister kink.

Just as a data point - I've been speccing and ordering an M440i in the UK. Have had conversations with 2 different dealers on the Laser Lights option (visibility pack here in the UK @£1500 extra). Both sales guys said it wasn't worth the cost uplift - both said the Adaptives are excellent as they are. The second dealer said he'd used them on an X5, and was very underwhelmed at the difference in the real world.
However, the DRL do look a bit nicer I do admit - but £1500 for me was better spent on other things! I might change my mind before the order locks down of course, but given both sales advisors had no obvious agenda to put me off spending money with them, I'm pretty comfortable that I can live with the slightly different appearance! |

Lasers only look much better in terms of the DRL signature. This was done deliberately by BMW to push more buyers in paying more for the Lasers. |

Bottom line, those of us who can afford it do.
If you like the look, go for it.

Looking at those images right now. I must correct myself. Adaptive LED low beam is not better than Laser low beam. It's pretty much the same. |
