LED low beams
Is there a way to tell if a CT has LED by just looking . I'm still looking at a 11 and a 12 . I've seen the 11 in person but it was hard to tell . Didn't seem like they had them . The 12 Ive only seen pictures so far.

Led version has two smaller lenses for low beam?
Here's a light comparison (Mercedes-Benz A series, BMW 1 series and prefacelift Ct 200h) from local car magazine:

edit. Different link if hotlinking isn't working http://aijaa.com/YsuIuZ

This is the standard halogen model. Notice the single large projector that cuts into the LED daytime running light strip.
This is the LED version. Notice the two smaller projectors which do not cut into the LED DRL strip.

Thank you very much. I also want to point out, so there's no confusion, that the halogen picture is of a 2011-2013 CT, while the LED picture is of a 2014. This has no bearing on the headlights. They should look the same on any CT model as far as I have seen.
