Default 2016 GS Adaptive Headlights

why aren't they adaptive? My 2013 GS wasn't completely adaptive but they moved up and down, the 16 doesn't even have that

Triple beams are adaptive but thats only for the GS F and very few GS models

Cost cutting...
Sad when a Mazda6 has adaptive and a GS doesn't.

My '16 has them. They are standard with the Lux package. I believe they are optional on other versions. My 2008 ES had them but the 2013 did not. Some say they are not worth it but when you are on a winding road on a moonless night they are definitely better. On the GS with the LED projectors they already do a good job of lighting up the road and have a wide side to side pattern. The ES's were not as good so the adaptive lighting helped more on the ES.
