Headlight question

[bluenose1940]

Many modern cars have an option/switch whereby the angle of the dipped headlight beam can be adjusted.  This is generally used to lower the angle of the beam when you have say a full complement of five passengers and a boot full of luggage causing the dipped headlights to be too high, thus dazzling on-coming cars.

Anyone know if such an option is on the NX.  If there is, I haven't found it yet!

Many thanks.

All the Lexus range "and most of the Toyota" adjust the headlamp height automatically. This is done by ride height sensors on both the front, and rear suspension adjusting the headlamps depending on the load being carried.

Brilliant!  Thank you John, (Britiprius) much appreciated.

Thank you too John (royoftherovers) Unfortunately I can't put my hand to the manual, I think that her indoors may have put it somewhere 'tidy'😀
