They are worse....by miles....... I'd look at getting one with xenons or having them retrofitted. One single filament HB3 bulb is for dip and full beam MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

Having always had halogens I didn't find them too bad, but my DS had xenons and what a difference, I made sure my Disco came with xenons. Wouldn't have anything else until LR bring out LED headlights. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200 |

Xenons are the best at the moment, but i see the latest BMW 7 series now comes with Laser Headlights, this will be the next big thing, wonder when the FL2 conversion kit comes out? |

Laser headlights are a bit of a con to me, the light comes from a phosphor disc struck by laser light, causing it to glow, yes there bright but marketing more than anything ... Oh, and they cost '000's as an option. |

Never understood why they removed main beam spots to replace with drls, probably cheapest way to do it. Shame as fitting extra spots is a mission |

There plenty of posts on Evoqueownersclub about changing/upgrading from halogen to xenon so they can't be. I drove a mates Evoque before we bought ours and his one had halogens. Past: FL2 TD4 HSE Auto Evoque SD4 Dynamic Lux Auto Present: Audi A3 S Line. |
