High-intensity discharge headlamps (HID)

HID headlamps use a metal halide bulb as a light source for the low beam. Metal halide bulbs are superior to halogen bulbs because the light emitted is closer in colour to sunlight. The light shines ahead over a broader area of the road, as well as farther forward, to help increase driver visibility. HIDs also consume less power and last longer than regular halogen bulbs.
