For a so-called "good" car, in addition to the brand effect, whether it sells well or not is also very important. What is the most impressive thing? A conspicuous car logo? The domineering Chinese Open? Tough look? Every car owner has an answer in their mind. The headlights of cars are in the most prominent position. They have different shapes and their functions are even more irreplaceable. Today we will talk about those classic car lights that have left a deep impression on us.
1999 Mercedes-Benz S320
As the replacement of the Hutou Ben, the Mercedes-Benz S had a major facelift at this time. There are no sharp edges and corners, replaced by a slender figure and rounded arcs. The butterfly-shaped headlights become the finishing touch of this car. The elegant headlight shape did not hinder its luxury car feel, and it became the darling of business tycoons as soon as it was launched.
2004 Hyundai Sonata
In 2004, Beijing Hyundai launched the B-class Sonata, which became a strong competitor to the Honda Accord and Buick Regal at the time. The most impressive thing about this car is its "peanut headlights". The headlights that resemble peanuts and the serious grille look like serious Koreans. Since the Sonata was launched, it has become the official vehicle of many public institutions.
2004 Buick Regal
As a model that has been active in China for nearly 20 years, the strength of Buick Regal cannot be underestimated. But when it comes to the shape of this car, especially the shape of the headlights, there doesn't seem to be anything particularly impressive about it. But there is a small detail, I wonder if you have noticed it? In this car, when the turn signal is on, a side marker light will remain on as the turn signal is turned on until the turn signal switch is turned off. At that time, only Regal had such a design, with a strong aesthetic style.
2016 JEEP Liberty
Regarding the glorious history of JEEP, I think there is no need to introduce too much. The arrival of free light has pioneered the use of split headlights. It completely separates low beam, high beam and fog lights, which can't help but attract more eyes when walking on the road. Since the free light adopted the split headlight design, this design has gradually become popular, and we have to admire the designer's unique creativity.
2015 Volvo XC90
Recognized as one of the models with the best safety performance, the XC90 ushered in a major upgrade this year. In addition to the consistent safety design, the most impressive thing is its "Thor's Hammer" headlight shape. Thor's Hammer has both the functions of daytime running lights and turn signals. The shape is sharp and unique, making people Having a photographic memory seems to provide an added guarantee for safer driving. If there are any other headlight shapes that impress you, please feel free to add them.
We talked about headlights above. Next, let’s follow the topic of car lights and talk about car taillights to see who is the brightest red in the night traffic.
Beijing JEEP212
As a person born in the 1980s, my memory of cars probably starts with Beijing JEEP212. In that era when cars were still a rarity, the 212 was a symbol of absolute power. Its taillights adopt a prototype design, with one turn signal and one position light. It is simple and clear, but it is a memory that I can’t erase from my heart.
2018 MINI COOPERS
As a sports car with pure British origin, MINI introduced elements of the British Union Jack flag into the brake tail lights in 2018. The outline of the oval, with the Union Jack divided into two parts, is distributed on the left and right, which interprets the strong British style to the extreme and adds a lot to the model.
2017 Audi A8L
When it comes to car lights, we have to talk about Audi. This brand, known as the "light factory" in the circle, always brings us unexpected surprises. That is, in 2017, all Audi models creatively used flowing water turn signals, which once again brought changes to the automotive industry. Since then, many car companies have followed suit, but Audi's height has never been surpassed.
2013 Lincoln MKT
Speaking of the originator of through-type headlights, I think it must be Lincoln. Such a design undoubtedly increases the number of people turning heads at night. As Lincoln officially comes to China for sale, its design language has gradually become fashionable. Brands such as Porsche, BMW, and Audi have also adopted similar designs, making the vehicles both It is beautiful and also improves recognition, becoming a beautiful color in the dark night.
