What does the JETOUR X70 cornering light mean?
2 Answers
Cornering lights refer to the lights that illuminate in the direction of a turn when the car is turning, typically by activating the fog light on the turning side. In high-end vehicles, the headlights may also turn. Here are the specific details about cornering lights: Function: Cornering lights are additional lights that illuminate when the driver turns the steering wheel (some vehicles use fog lights as cornering lights). They help illuminate the blind spot in the curve while driving and turn off once the steering wheel is straightened. Bulb Type: Generally, cornering lights are independent bulbs placed inside the headlight housing. Compared to adaptive headlights, cornering lights are less expensive but less effective at illuminating blind spots.
I've been driving the Jetour X70 for three years, and the cornering light is the side light that automatically turns on when you steer. Normally, the headlights mainly illuminate straight ahead, but when making sharp turns at night or navigating narrow roads like those in residential areas, the sides always feel pitch black. That's when the cornering light activates automatically based on the steering wheel angle—turn left, and the left light comes on; turn right, and the right light does the same, directly illuminating the blind spot in your turning direction. I remember last winter driving on a mountain road, and thanks to this feature, I avoided a roadside drainage ditch. Jetour's design is quite thoughtful, unlike some cars that require manually turning on the fog lights for assistance.
