Cornering lights on my '22 ES with the triple lights go on with turn signal activation, or turning the steering wheel.

Based on the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) Headlight testing technical measurement data for the 2019 Lexus ES 350 (2019 through 2021 data is all the same) and 2022 Lexus ES 350 there should be some noticeable illumination distance improvements especially in the standard LED Projector headlights' low beam and both beams' curve illumination distances for 2022 and later model years. However, the 2022 and later standard LED Projector headlights' high beam straightaway illumination distances aren't quite as long a distance as previous model years' were.
On the other hand, triple beam LED projector headlights' 2022 and later model years' is more of a mixed bag of increases and decreases in illumination distances from prior model years' illumination distances. With the exception of straightaway right edge illumination distance, the 2022 triple beam high beam measurements were disappointingly all decreased distances from those measured for prior years.

I drive to and from work during the dark hours, mostly on 2 lane roads with no lights.
When driving the ES with base lights, they are more than adequate. They do not bend or go up and down, but are graet on the road, specially with the auto high beam. The 16 RX has the triple beams and the same auto high beam. I had to raise the light line on the RX and they are almost on par with the base ESh lights.
The new RX and NX in Ultra luxury ion Canada come with adaptive Intelligent high beam. I can't wait for those. They can turn on high beam, even with on-coming traffic, without blinding anyone.
