Philips Launches New Automotive Lighting Solutions

Philips India has launched several new automotive lighting solutions for the Indian market as the company is looking at expanding their product offerings in the automotive segment as well as cater to enhanced safety and offer customers a better driving experience.  Amongst the products on offer, Philips showcased their new daytime running lamps LED DayLight 4 and LED DayLight 8. For an improvement over the standard lamps for nighttime driving, Philips has introduced the X-tremeVision replacement lamp.

The new daytime running lamps are said to improve the cars visibility to oncoming traffic and pedestrians thus making driving a safer experience. Day time running lights have been a common practice internationally and even in India, these can be found on some high end cars. Their contribution to a safer driving experience has been proven time and time again and now these can be purchased as aftermarket accessories for your car thanks to Philips. The LED lights have a low power consumption rate and a low failure rate which is what makes them rather reliable. The LED Daylight 4 has a life of more than 5,000 running hours. Further to this, these lights come with the system to enable the driver to shift from halogen lights to the LED light source during the day, thus avoiding the use of their halogens and therefore extending their life as well. The LED Daylight 8 have been built to run 24/7 as they come with a function to dim the lights. These lights have a running life of more than 10,000 hours. Philips has priced these lights between Rs. 6,500-10,000, which might look a little steep, however considering the benefits, the economies of scale work in your benefit.

To enhance the night time driving experience, the Philips X-tremeVision replacement lamp provides 100 per cent more light output compared to a standard lamp. Thanks to a rather high output, driver visibility increases and therefore reduces strain on the eyes and apart from deterring fatigue, these lights are a boon as they allow you to see obstacles clearer and earlier therefore helping in mitigating any accidents or mishaps. Priced rather competitively, the Philips X-tremeVision just costs Rs 600 per lamp.
