it would also be interesting to see how the auto headlights look from the outside, in the viewpoint of another car
Calls police ”there is a Guy swerving like crazy”
Police ”its just Björn Nyland testning matrix lights”
I actually tested a sr yesterday. I was not super impressed by matrix but it was pleasant that no one flashed me so a huuuuge improvement from old tesla headlights. I have a nio et7 and was generally impressed by the nippy and nimble ride of the highland. So comfy and nice ride too. And soundsystem at least on par with rhe nio. Kinda impressed and i actually miss it. Used to have a 21 m3p so felt a bit like coming back home. Only thing i did not like is the blinkers. Useless in rouadabouts. I actually regret handing it in yesterday wish i kept it and took it for a drive today as well
The new headlight of highland is significantly dimmer than the previous model, however the illumination of the matrix module has better uniformity.
What's more important is that it has permanently solved the dazzling problem of lowbeam in the previous model by adjusting the shape of the cut-off line.
In some countries it is not allowed to use high-beams within cities. Probably a reason why matrix lights are turned off with low speeds.
Yep, light pollution is a real thing, also really no point with streetlights around.
I've noticed auto high beams typically turn off around ~
Good thing with tesla is, whenever several people have an issue with something there's a solid chance that they release an update to fix it.
I hope you can make a short follow up with a pre-Highland model 3 or a Model Y with the new update that enables this feature for them.
Made the same observations like you did about it. Very responsive and working quick for the most part. Some trucks will flash at you but they did it in my Volvo too, so I guess it's because the truck drivers are sitting high and get the annoying lights in their faces before the car detects the lights of the truck. I'm really pleased to have matrix lights now because I really missed them from my Volvo.
Looks like a good addition and nice that it has arrived in a free software update.
Since my 2021 model 3 had this update I have been extremely impressed with the matrix system. It has had a couple of misses when oncoming traffic lights are hidden by the guard rail, particularly on an uneven road or hills.
I really hope Tesla brings this to the pre-facelift cars with matrix soon!
they will, just matter of time, coz they did paper work
2024.8 update incoming
@@CarstenSchlipf ETA?
@@KP-xi4bj Now. Already rollling out
Well it's a begining, it's the first version and we know tesla does continuously improve, so hopefully we get a reviewed software
My Leaf is crying in Hokksund lol
Bjørn, what do you expect from the “old” Tesla matrix lights fitted to the older model 3’s and Y’s, when they get the software upgrade to unlock the matrix function - they should be with more individual LED’s, potentially being better? Thx for great content. Greetings from Denmark
Great update my neighbour loves it, can't wait to get it, huge improvement
It would be nice to compare the higland and the previous one side by side in the same video and in the same roads.
3:50 I thought that you are behind a Cybertruck!
จะมีภาษาไทยไหมครับ กำลังสนใจ topic นี้พอดีเลยครับ
Recommendation @Bjørn Nyland. When testing lights, do a repeatable test at a fixed exact location so you can make comparisons, similar concept as your excellent charging tests / races. Keep you the good work 🙂
That's exactly what I have been doing for years. You should start watching my videos...
@@bjornnylandwhat a bitter reply to a kind message. Do better 🙄
@bjornnyland I think he’s merely saying to do repeated tests on the same care on the same route to get the results of the review. Also, as the other commenter mentioned, please be kind in your comments, not everyone is implying negativity in their reason for commenting.
Also, if you zigzagging to test, the car in front of you thought that you were impatient and wanted to pass, just as a kind mention, perhaps have a companion in front of you to do certain tests to check how the lights behave with the metrix lights.
Just did a long night drive in sweden with the highland. Agree. The lights are sorta... anemic? But the adaptive matrix light stuff works great.
Now im just waiting for auto wiper improvements 💀
Can the Highland actually write Tesla on the wall? I heard someone claimed only the older model will do that. The Highland lights doesn’t have the same resolution. Has anyone tested?
Does the rwd model 3 have these matrix lights too?
Did they come from a software update? Are they available on which versions?
only highland
How much will these cost to replace? My model X headlamp(s) had to be replaced. $3700 CAD. Each. Tesla says headlamps are considered as a consumable.
Was wondering the same thing. Read mk1 model 3 is about 1000 usd. Wonder how much the highlands are
@@egil-andrenessmortensen3037 Previous gen model3 with matrix projector was arround 750€ not more expensive then any other matrix system out there
Did they just stop working or was it from an accident? How long did they last?
@@SpenserFL No, repair. Someone crashing into the parked car
@@kenion2166 its actually very cheap. Still wondering how much the new highlands cost though 😊
Does the 2023 Model Y have matrix hardware, that can be enable via software?
Yes even the 2021 model3 got that
In DK you are not allow to drive with high beam in city zone - did the Tesla high beam turn off in the city zone ?
I think you need to do some two car testing. It would be nice to see the lights from a car coming in the other direction as well as a car that the highland is following. Thanks for the video.
Now that it seems that 2021-2023 Model 3 and Model Y will get adaptive headlights in an upcoming update - do you consider that they will actually have better lights than the Highland?
I blew 11.000,- on a Lazer Elite for my Y at Bilkomponenter on Thursday, thanks to your videos, so the update is probably just around the corner haha 😂
They will be way better.
Just simply by the fact that the headlights are way better, they are bright but even more importantly have a larger spread. And also they have more individual pixels (around 120 compared to the crap 30 from the Highland) and they also can shift to the left and right a bit.
You won't regret that Lazer elite!
Is the old model 3 with matrix headlight get this update soon?
its already out if your not in the us
The camera for the Matrix lights are usually top of the windshield and the lights are way lower on the front of the car. So if the camera can’t see a car over an obstacle, the other car surely can’t be blinded by your headlights 😊
i dont personally mind the number of projections the module does, bcuz i prefer less modules and fast response, i mind if headlights are bright and deep enough..both aspects can be fixed by software if this leds are dimmable. For now we can actually appreciate the effort tesla is putting in finally releasing matrix functions.
When it’s separated roads my Volvo matrix have big problems.
Yeah Polestar matrix lights gets me flashed way too often, they really need to fix them as I don't feel safe using them a lot of the time.
Yyoooo whatsuuuupppp Björn
Is it only working for highland or „old“ models as well?
No update on the old models so far. It is rumoured to be in the works though.
@@woalk thanks👍
older matrix lights have been approoved so probably will come soon atleast within this year@@sunseeker-yb5qt
@@rohanjosem 👍
I found the highland high beam very poor... hope the old m3 Will have this feature.
It has been confirmed by Tesla that an update for all the matrix lights in 21’ Model 3 and Y will get it
@@DeeKay1911 WE will see. The Matrix effect on the old high beam will be Amazing 😎
could it be you accidently switched into BMW Mode when the car started flashin at other cars in front?😆
When the older Teslas get this update, they should have a much higher resolution because Highland doesn't have as many pixels to write Tesla on the wall.
And ofcourse that’s the most important thing headlights can do…😂
❤❤❤
What head up display is there?
never in any tesla
This type of lighting system is incredible, but the price that comes with them is outrageous. I’m not just talking about Tesla, BMW, Toyota, Mercedes are all doing the same thing. They are milking their customers to the tune of 3€500-€5000 to replace these types of lights, please remember this price is only the product. This has nothing to do with the installation and reprogramming that it works with your vehicle. This price is only for one headlight which means if you have to replace both of them, it’s double the punch. Who would ever imagine that we would pay up to 8,000 to 10,000 just to replace headlights. I guess that’s what they call a game changer.
5000€ more like 800€ / light lmao. On Tesla they dont scam you with "reprogramming" bullshit its just plug and play
"Stop bugging me, Chinese car" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You were probably blinding the first car that let you past 😂
Funny fact that the first car in front pulled over because was blinded to much. Maybe the weather conditions were to bad but I could not see any different to auto high beam. No curve light, no corner light, no masking of traffic signs. And you need new wipers.
I wish the U.S. would get out of the 50's and adopt modern auto tech.
With election in November there is chance that US will wholesale move society back to 1950s.
Are they actually matrix projectors or adaptive reflectors ?
they are matrix
1:28 why turn back in the lane, sure the person wanted you to pass but with 0 distance and pass center line then rocks etc can easily damage the car behind. Why not say a few meters in the left lane?
I like that it's not too bright, headlights in a lot of cars have gotten so excessively bright it's almost dangerous.
Matrix lights take some time to register oncoming cars and turn off the lights, if I'm going through a hairpin turn I don't want it to be so bright the oncoming car is completely blinded by the time it manages to turn off.
Also it's good that the lights turn off in cities and around streetlights, light pollution is a real issue and if it isn't needed it really shouldn't be on. When you're driving around residential areas you don't want to shoot highbeams into houses, and blinding pedestrians/cyclists, below 30 km/h highbeams really aren't needed anyways as lowbeams already cover way past your stopping distance at those speeds.
Where is this dashboard from? Is this an app?
Rewatch the video, the answer is within the first minute.
@@phillip3330I swear, the amount of people watching CZcams with no sound must be higher than I thought 😂
thanks@@phillip3330 . Sometimes i skip the first couple of minutes to get to the "meat" of the video faster
In Bjorn we trust, thanks. Here is a question on the spot, yesterday you had glitch with charging id7 , can you see Tesla connector coming to Norway like in USA , for example with referendum or so,or ccs2 is too deep rooted for now.
NACS will never be a thing in Europe since it's not 3-phase as CCS2.
Tesla chargers and cars in Europe are CCS since 2019, except for first generation V2 chargers which have both NCAS and CCS plugs. Some of the early Model S and X cars also had NCAS plugs. There is no charging infrastructure in NCAS in Europe other than Tesla V2 chargers and no cars equiped with NCAS plugs other than some old Teslas. Tesla chargers with CCS plugs are just as reliable as Tesla chargers with NCAS plugs. Besides, I am not aware that the NCAS plug is in any way superior to CCS. As indicated by Danne89, CCS is compatible with 3phase electricity which is commonplace in Europe. Three phase current allows for thinner copper wires than monophase current which requires higher Amp ratings. So for Europe, CCS is superior to NCAS. In America, three phase current is not as wide spread.
The problem is the high speed chargers other than Tesla's which are not 100% reliable. Then again, non Tesla chargers have to communicate with many different car brands.
So the plug is not the issue, it is the hardware and software of the chargers and possibly the cars themselves.
@@philipperapaccioli2868Tesla NEVER had NACS in Europe. V2 SuC and early Tesla models have a modified Type 2 for fast charging.
Highland does not write TESLA on the wall. less LEDs
1:35 what do you mean what's up with the cars. I'd pull over too if I had a lunatic swerving behind me like that lmao.
Late and not particularly great. IMHO, quite a let-down given what BMW & Co put in their cars many, many years ago.
It’s Tesla so we can expect future updates to improve it.
@@ericy.2108ou can't upgrade weak lamps for $5.
@@pietruszka2194I don't want more powerful lights, I want lights that work at high speeds with oncoming traffic.
With more powerful lights I'd have to turn off my highbeams even earlier than I do already.
Late... but free of charge. On what 40k€ 600l 5 places BMW do you have matrix LED? And can you share with us your experience on BMW matrix Led versus Tesla? Because for me, seems very similar to what I know from BMW...
@@jeanbaptistelabelle from E36? 😂Have you seen the laser lights on the BMW? I doubt it. The ones in the Tesla are very poor, that's all I have to say.
It sucks you can see the pixels outlined on the trees in front of you when the brights are activated.
Can you fit a 55" TV in a Tesla Model 3? Did anyone try?
You can do that :) Have done this a few times with my Model 3

Welcome to 2015, Tesla!
"Tesla is 10 years ahead" LOL!
I do not know many 40k car that had matrix LED in 2015. Indeed, even today, this is very very rare because it is a 1500-2000€ option that only a little portion of the people take and certainly not o' a 40k car
@@jeanbaptistelabelle In 2015 Tesla did not sell 40K cars. They only sold S and X models. The cheapest Tesla S was over 60K $, even more in EU. It took Tesla until 2024 before they provided working matrix LED headlights on any model. That is being ~10 years behind market leaders.
@@Foersom_ sure.. On the other hand, my S from 2017 was taking the exit automatically 4 years before any other cars. I had Sentry mode 4 years before some cars at double the price offered that.
I am still waiting Dog mode 5 years after it's introduction. Or also:
- roaming of driver profile
- Spotify account link to the profile
- Netflix / Zoom / CZcams / Disney Plus
- opening the car just with your phone in your pocket with support of UWB to detect the driver from the other passagers
- car who warn you that the red light turned green or the car in front of you left
- auto blinker off
...
I can stop there. Yes, you can find many of the features of the Tesla in cars that are almost double the price. But you have also many features unique to Tesla, even for car that are double or triple the price.
So you can focus on one single feature but a car is a total package. So far, I do not know a single car, at any price, that offers all what Tesla offers.
And the one that try to come close are almost double the price.
@@jeanbaptistelabellethere were plenty, even cheaper ones. And then there were systems like my old Passat, which had projector LEDs with shutters. They work better than the Matrix LED in this Video, much beighter as well. That was a 2018, but those headlights were introduced in 2015.
Facelift (2020) had Matrix, which have more zones and react a bit quicker, but they don't stick to turns quite as impressively as the shutter LEDs did.
Tesla still has a long way to go in terms of headlights... But hey, it's not like the entire ADAS is based around vision for Tesla...
Tested it for over 400km as I got soo many flashes from trucks from the opposite side. I don't know how good is for normal cars, but certainly not working as intended for bigger/taller trucks.
Also, sometimes, if there are multiple signs, especially in areas where construction is happening, it goes APE sh1t due to the reflection. Goes on/off like crazy over and over.
I eventually turned it off. I was excited but in the end it needs a LOT of work.
Then again, I've never drove cars with adaptive headlights, so wtf do I know...
Two questions for you Mr Nyland:
1) When will you drive a Cybertruck? (Hope it's soon. Love to hear your reactions.)
2) When will you attempt to _drive_ a Tesla from Norway to Thailand?
@@andersnilsson973Oops. He did some videos in Sweden. I thought that was his home.
These matrix lights aren't the ones that can write tesla on the wall. Highland won't be able to do that. The old Model 3/Y and current S/X have a much higher resolution matrix arrangement than highland, which allows for writing "tesla".
Can’t find anything on this. What’s your source?
@@wallstreet1469 the design itself. It's only got a handful of light modules, physically not possible to spell letters out, just not enough resolution compared to the projector style matrix on the older cars
Also I'm fairly certain RSEV confirmed no projection during the light show
@1:16 Poor Hyundai driver gets blinded by slow reacting matrix lights and pulls over.
@11:09 Conclusion.
Yes. To be fair you probably should not drive like that. It probably felt like bjørn was flashing. So in a way failed that test after all.
If you look magnified at the Hyundai you see I was not blinded by Björn. Maybe he was irritated of drunk Björn 😅.
Could you please test byd seal before i go and buy it 😅
It's a good car, you'll like it.
Strange, my MY18 XC60 has matrix lights they work better than these matrix lights, no advancement here then…
Watched many reviews of the new MY24 m3 and have a test scheduled for next weekend.
Tesla only uses the cars cameras for headlights, wipers, parking, etc... Tesla does not use dedicated hardware. It's for the sake of simplicity, reliability and low production costs.
Your car probably has a dedicated camera for the matrix headlights, a dedicated electrical circuit with a processor, dedicated wiring. Same thing for the automatic wipers.
So it's the Tesla way. Simpler, cheaper, but not necessarily better.
@@philipperapaccioli2868cheaper, yes. Simpler, no. Worse, yes. The headlight performance of Tesla is appaling compared to other cars... Most blinding car on the market, and yet terrible illumination for the driver as well.
@@kain0m It is simpler, that is why it is cheaper. Cars are tested by government regulators before they can be sold, and this covers headlights. So all cars on the road when new meet government regulations including the shape, spread, size and intensity of their light beams.
That said, I agree that dedicated hardware, wiring and electronics probably yield better results for automatic wipers, automatic high beams, matrix lights, parking sensors etc..
no 4K :(
I know, what is wrong with the drivers in front of you. The Matrix light doesnt see the tail lights of other cars as light it has to turn down the light for.... Thats why they pull over....
The non-Highland will be way better as the headlights are way better. They have way more Matrix-zones, they are generall brighter, have a better spread and can even be shifted to left or right if Tesla does it right.
Shozld be coming soon, Tesla even officially stated this already. And it will be a free update for 3Refresh, Y, S&X
The Highland is not capable of writing tesla on a wall as it doesn't have pixcell headlights
You sure? The previous model (21) can do it.
@@Sadjina the model 3 production year 21-23 has pixcell headlights, but due to cost cutting, the 24 highland has a different system (much simpler)
@@Valentijnzz I did not know that, thanks!
@@Valentijnzz I dont think it has to do with cost cutting, more like the design.. Look how thin the light is, there is simply no space
I don’t get flashed anymore with my Y matrix headlights. Also the brights are insanely bright like the sun lol it’s so awesome
Model Y doesnt have the Matrix functionality yet.
@@patrickvoelzmedia I’m just replying about weak, Bjorn, do you mean weak as in the motion and responsiveness? I thought you were referring to the brightness
Model 3 Ludicrous is unvealed
pretty lame considering this ain't a topic nowadays, but more a 2015 related topic. Still, German premium brands have light systems that are "lightyears" ahead of any Tesla.
If u buy it. It’s free in the Tesla. But go ahead give them your money. I guess the need more money for the 2015 innovation 😂
@@hansson30 I hear that a lot. It's NOT free in the Tesla. The hardware that has been built in without software has been considered in the car price. NOTHING FOREVER is for free in the automotive industry. Furthermore: matrix is considered standard in many many cars.
@@neothehackerV2 Why do u pay extra for the matrix in other cars? It’s not standard! It’s in a package where u get some shit u don’t want.
@@hansson30 In Tesla you also paid for matrix lights, it just did not work for years.
@@Foersom_banana product, ripens at the customer. At some point they will maybe figure out automatic wipers.
About 8 out of 10 times when i get blinded by a meeting car with low beam/matrix (not working) its a Tesla, 1 out of 10 its a BMW. Rest is usually people with a front-heavy trailer out looking for a fishtail adventure.
The likelihood of you even having encountered 8 Teslas at night with matrix lights ever since the feature was introduced a couple days ago is rather low. 😂
@@hackbrettschorsch6855old teslas, low beam ones. The old teslas lights suck and shine way too bright on low usually.. These might be good 👍. By matrix i implied other brands with matrix - not sure if thats what the BMWs who keeps blinding is running, or what BMW calls it.
Tesla didn't have matrix lights until recently so that simply cannot be true.
I think some of the problem of the weak power comes from norways „salz&schmutz fest“ like björn calls it at the new M3 is the headlights less high than previous so the slugish from the road tape a layer of dirt on the headlights. Tesla should implement headlight washers like polestar or some german cars. Grz from 🇨🇭
Nope
Headlight washers are useless unless you’re off track and get mud on the headlights. Not even a pressure washer can remove traffic film. You need touch washing to remove that. The performance has nothing to do with how clean they are in this test.
@@wallstreet1469 Head light washers works well for winter grime and summer dust on my Skoda Enyaq.
Thanks for the review. However, I'm not trying to be rude, but please don't drive so erratically in traffic for the sake of testing, get someone you know to drive in front of you instead. You're confusing or scaring other drivers in front of you and may cause an accident.
😂
People understand, that its just another crazy tesla driver to avoid. (Ps: Not saying bjørn is a bad driver)
Not to be rude or anything but I feel like playing the tiniest violin after reading this comment.
sure, the traditional car makers are delivering it since more than a decade, but you have to pay extra money for it!
1:21: I also led those pesky blinding Teslas pass, so I don't get to be flashed in the mirrors all the time!
