Headlights provide the illumination that helps the driver both see and be seen when driving on the road.

Philips RacingVision headlight bulbs, developed by Lumileds, have been named Auto Express Best Buy 2018.

The Auto Express Mega-Test lines up ten pairs of the top performance bulbs on the market and subjects them to a number of different tests, in terms of quality of light, length of beam, brightness of beam and accuracy of beam pattern.

The magazine produces an overall Figure of Merit, according to the overall performance of both of the pair of bulbs and it has recently included additional testing criteria, to make the analysis even more accurate and comprehensive.

Auto Express reported: “Even in our revised test, the Philips RacingVision is still the class of the field and, as in 2016, by a clear margin.

“It topped all but one test, and would have finished further ahead solely on our old Figure of Merit ratings, scoring 198 with the next best on 163.

“It looked good in the tunnel, too, with a bright hot spot close to the dipped-beam cut-off and the hard-to-hit 75-metre measurement.

“Top performance, although claimed lifetime is around 200 hours.”

Philips RacingVision headlight bulbs provide up to 150 per cent brighter light, for better visibility and greater contrast.

The superior beam performance of the Philips RacingVision headlamp helps drivers identify dangerous situations faster and stay in control of their vehicle – whatever road conditions they are facing.

The specific colour temperature up to 3,500 Kelvin of Philips RacingVision also help drivers’ eyes focus better.

They therefore have greater control and confidence, and can relax into a safer and more enjoyable journey.

“We are delighted to be awarded Best Buy 2018 for our RacingVision headlamps which are engineered for performance and safety through visibility, two characteristics that are important to drivers who are passionate about their car and taking it on the road,” said Lumileds’ UK business development manager, Richard Armstrong.

“They are looking for the highest quality so that they can maximize safety and the comfort of the performance driving experience, for themselves as much as for their passengers and other road users.”

Philips RacingVision headlamps are available in H4 and H7 at major automotive resellers throughout Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Lumileds is licensed to use the Philips brand for its automotive lighting and accessories product portfolio.
