Xenon Headlights – Top Ten Cars Who Have It

So, you’re thinking of buying a car with Xenon headlights? Check out these cars:


VW Lupo GTI £13,455
It’s quite surprising that Lupo GTI comes with Xenon headlights. No one’s complaining though. This little car is a powerhouse machine. It will definitely be a good companion for long drives – even during the night. It’s a bit expensive, but it’s worth it.

Renault Clio Renaultsport 182 £14,700
Before you go out and buy a Clio, make sure that it’s a 182, not the latest Cup model. This is because the Cup model doesn’t include HID headlights. This megawatt, 182bhp, 2.0-litre engine machine performs well under pressure, and even sharp curves and tight spaces are handled without a glitch. What’s more, if you shop around and you’ll get one for significantly cheaper than list price, making the Clio 182 a real bargain too.

Mazda 3 2.0 Sport £15,500
Mazda’s Sport Trim is now available with Xenon lights. With a 150bhp 2.0-litre engine, the Mazda 3 lives up to its name, with its speed reaching 60mph in just 9 seconds. Check its suspension, and you’ll see muscles. What’s more, the Mazda 3 is often overlooked in its class, but if bright lights are a priority it’s worth taking a second good look.

Renault Laguna Dynamique 1.8 £17,315
One of the older cars in this segment, the Laguna remains striking and stylish despite its age. Also, it’s more comfortable compared to its other of its rivals.

Mazda6 2.3 Sport £18,100
This time, we are now talking about the bigger 6, which competes against the other giants like Ford Mondeo and Vauxhall Vectra. This care has a lot of value, and its spacious and neatl style became a hit when it was launched – increasing Mazda’s profits well. If you want to get it with Xenon lights you’ll have to upgrade to a 2.3-litre version in Sport trim.

Skoda Superb 1.9 TDI Elegance £18,800
It’s often mistaken for the VW saloon, but this shouldn’t turn you off. It has a rear seat space that is enormous, and it has a powerful 130bhp 1.9-litre TDI engine that can rip the roads anytime you want.

Citroen C5 2.0 Auto Exclusive £19,595
Yes, it’s dowdier than the British Royals. But despite its unpopularity with car aficionados, it still has a lot of potential. What’s more, it’s now fully changed, and the smart double chevron grille and neat front and rear ‘boomerang’ lights have transformed it into an elegant and stylish car. Despite the exterior change, the interior remains the same. Xenon headlamps in the C5 range start with the 2.0-litre Exclusive model with the automatic transmission.

Peugeot 407 2.2 Executive £19,950
It seems the French like their cars well equipped, as four out of our top ten here come from across the channel. The newest of the bunch is Peugeot’s 407. This car is proving to be a classy and eclectic – with a look that challenges the conservative cars available in the market right now. Driving is also enjoyable too – it has a tidy handling and a cosseting ride, which is something Peugeot cars are known for. Once again to get Xenon lights as standard you’re looking up the range, but the 2.2-litre Executive model comes fully-loaded with equipment as a result.

Honda Accord 2.4 Executive £21,600
Driving a Honda is an experience, because it combines quality and functionality in one. With the 2.4-litre engine, you get maximum distances while at the same time offering one of the most exceptional manual gearboxes this side of Porsche 911. To get Xenon lights as standard you need to opt for the pricey Executive model, but you’ll also get extras like Sat Nav and leather seats too.

Alfa Romeo 166 2.0 TS Turismo £21,750
This car has been recently revised, and now, the carmakers have focused on sharpening its style more than ever. Today, Alfa can be considered one of the most attractive cars around, although it’s not that distinctive like some others.

  1. A headlamp/xenon lights is a lamp, usually attached to the front of a vehicle such as a car, with the purpose of illuminating the road ahead during periods of low visibility, such as darkness or precipitation. Headlamp performance has steadily improved throughout the automobile age. I am very particular when it comes to auto light because it makes the whole function of the car. Without the car light, the whole vehicle will be nothing. lights also used a s a sign in a traffic road.

  2. When purchasing hids, there are a number of Kelvin temperatures to choose from, usually starting from 3000K all the way up to 12000K or even higher. Be careful with this, as there is a widespread misconception that the higher the Kelvin temperature, the brighter the light. That's not true.
