I don't understand what you are saying, by my intelligent high beams works well. High beam as the default unless there is a car or other light, in which case it goes down to the regular headlight.

Do you mean "Adaptive High-beam System" like what is stated from this article? Unfortunately North America is excluded from this feature due to "U.S. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108, a 1967 law"

Check this video, it's more like matrix headlight system, not just auto high beam function

it's sad to hear that , although triple beam is so bright and cool, it will be great to have adaptive function

I thought NHTSA approved matric headlights last year.

Interesting! Here is another video from a LexusAsia
channel.

Complicated system as it requires cameras etc

Canadian NX has the matrix headlights. Nothing on Lexus Website about the RX having it.

RX500h has it and I am in Canada. Just for clarity for anyone else. It’s referred to as “Adaptive High-Beam system” or AHS. Matrix is Audi’s marketing.

edit: it is also listed in Lexus Canada when you do a cross model comparison of packages.

Yes, my 24 Rx35h also has it. I think it is only in Canada though.

I love it!

Right?! I recall seeing the tech in other companies thinking that would be awesome to have. It is rather impressive technology with the added benefit of safety.
