Does the Geely Binrui headlight come with a lens?

Geely Binrui headlights come with a lens. Introduction to Geely Binrui: The Geely Binrui is positioned as a compact car, ranking 4th in the popular comparison car series reputation ranking with a score of 4.69, among which its appearance is the most fashionable and attractive. It has a length of 4680mm, a wheelbase of 2670mm, a luggage compartment volume of 470 liters, uses 92-octane gasoline, and features front MacPherson independent suspension and rear torsion beam non-independent suspension. The new car is equipped with features such as tire pressure display, rearview camera, cruise control, 10.25-inch LCD dashboard, car networking, LED daytime running lights, and manual anti-glare rearview mirror. Introduction to Geely Binrui LED lights: The high-end model of Geely Binrui features integrated high and low beam LED headlights with a lens, which are very stylish. It is equipped with daytime running lights and width indicators. When the turn signal is activated, the LED daytime running lights will turn off.

Actually, the headlight configuration of the Geely Binrui depends on the specific model and year. When I drove my friend's 2021 1.4T Sport version before, I noticed that the pair of LED headlights clearly had round lenses, which made the light very focused at night, illuminating the road clearly. However, I remember the base manual transmission version used ordinary halogen lights without lenses. The advantage of having lenses is that the light is concentrated and doesn't scatter, providing long-distance illumination without dazzling oncoming drivers. If you're really concerned about this, the most reliable way is to check the headlight cover for glass lenses when buying the car. Recently, I saw in the car owners' group that the 2023 models mostly come standard with lenses, but it's still best to check the specific configuration list.

My friend just bought the automatic top-trim Binrui with those LED lights that come with projectors. According to him, they're particularly useful when driving on mountain roads during rainy days. The light beams are focused by the projectors, significantly enhancing penetration in rainy or foggy conditions. However, the base manual transmission model doesn't come with this feature. Nowadays, many people retrofit projectors, but the factory-installed ones have finer craftsmanship. I'd suggest bringing a flashlight when checking the car to inspect the headlight assembly - the projector looks like convex glass. If I were to change cars, I'd definitely prioritize configurations with projectors. The safety factor for night driving is completely different. Although it costs a few thousand yuan more, the lighting performance truly justifies the price difference.

Since the 2021 model year, the higher trim levels of the Binrui, like the Sport version, mostly come equipped with projector headlights. The biggest advantage of LED lights with projectors is that the light beam doesn't scatter, especially when passing oncoming traffic on national highways, avoiding dazzling other drivers. However, be cautious with used cars, as some sellers may misrepresent halogen lights as high-end features. The simplest way to tell is to check for a raised circular lens inside the headlight. When selecting a car, directly turning on the lights to observe the effect is the most straightforward method—projector-equipped lights will show a distinct beam cutoff line. If you encounter a car with aftermarket projector lights, pay extra attention to checking the sealing to prevent moisture ingress during rainy days.

The lens-equipped headlights are mainly featured on the 1.4T high-power variants of the Binrui, and the lighting performance differs significantly. The lens version can project low beams over 50 meters without compromising visibility for oncoming traffic. During a recent car pickup for a relative, we specifically compared them—the lens-equipped model provides noticeably wider lateral illumination when cornering at night. However, the entry-level 1.0T models generally lack this configuration. When purchasing, we recommend checking the headlight assembly's transparent cover for a magnifying glass-like convex lens structure. If uncertain, test drive in a dimly lit underground garage—lens-equipped beams exhibit exceptionally sharp cutoff lines. Retrofitting later costs around 3,000-4,000 RMB, making the factory-installed option a more cost-effective long-term solution.
