The distance and width is baked into the engineering of the hard pieces. The optics.

you can adjust the level up if you think its not adjusted but the chances are slim. These are adjusted at the factory during final check. and they're rechecked.

I do not have any experience with this model yet (picking mine up in two hours), but I can tell you every Lexus I have owned is adjusted a tad low. I think Lexus is trying to be overly cautious and avoid blinding oncoming traffic. Even though I have had mine adjusted, I never get flashed by oncoming traffic so I think there is some room for adjustment without being a nuisance.

My UK 2018 NX is also disappointing lowish even on full beam. My NX has the triple light set up (actually it’s 4 lights on the UK / European models). My wife’s Mazda CX-3 adaptive lights are much better than my Lexus.

If you have auto-levelling, can you tweak the linkage on the sensor? Or is the drive on the lights already set to max “Up” when there is no load in the trunk?

Thanks. We purchased a luxury model hybrid in the same color combination and wheels as yours. I really wanted the triple beam lights but they couldn’t locate one in my desired color, plus that would have raised the price above my comfort threshold. Anyway, looking forward to figuring all the goodies out now.
