Default AFS - Adaptive Frontlight System?

Hi all,

I have this question but can't find much info. Has Lexus ever offered this feature on the GX for the US market since 2010 at some point?

The manual says "If equipped".

My 2019/2020 Premium headlights appear to move up and down on engine startup but no settings for it. So do they have it?

Thanks,

I have AFS equipped on my on my 2011, along with factory HIDs. I also have AFS on my 2010 RX350. Lexus stopped offering it after 2014+

No longer offered since 2014 as GX adapted LED headlights.

Thanks,
Up & down is just the headlight auto-leveling, which you do have. The AFS is left and right .

That makes senses. Thank you all that replied.

The headlights themselves already provide wide enough angle that the AFS seems redundant. Plus now Lexus offers auto high beam as standard.

I have a 2020 GX and coming from a 2018 Outback Tourin. Even with the wide LEDs range of the GX, I still missed having the headlights turn left/right with the steering. It's so useful driving on mountain roads with lots of tight turns, which we have a lot here in PNW. Especially, crossing the border and driving to Whistler, BC.

I'm getting ready to replace my fog lights with Baja Designs S1s. Not officially road legal, but small flood LEDs which should hopefully fill this gap for me.
Requires dremeling the fog light holes in the bumper a bit..
