Adaptive Front Lighting Question
Was wondering what the general thought is on the degrees the lights adjust in each direction. On my car they definitely turn further to the left then when turning right, let's say 25 degrees left to 15 degrees right?
Is it noticeable to anyone else? Does anyone know why?
I've considered if it is an optical illusion or perspective from the driver's seat, but don't think so.

Mine does the same thing. I have owned 4 Lexus cars and they all do this. I find this feature very useful when i am carving a canyon up in the mountains late at night.

Wouldn't that be the case whether turning right or left? Since we drive on the right side of the road, wouldn't it make more sense that the left did not rotate as much?
Love the lights and have no problem with it, just seeing if anyone knows the rational.

Think of it as a safety feature for us drivers instead of a safety feature for other cars on the road.
Also when at an intersection when makeing a left turn you are turning your car in a wider radius versus truning right on the same intersection. Wider turn means more degrees required to turn the headlights to illuminate the road.
