Limited market for right hand drive cars. Citroen do not have the volume in the UK like BMW and the VAG group do.

So does Australia and Japan. Maybe they will be available next year when the Hybrid version comes out.

Sorry, IMHO that BS. The light units are the same for all versions - they just chose not to include those extras on the UK market cars. The UK is a fairly large market for Citroen, and there's no excuse for it. As it happens, I wouldn't choose LED headlights myself - they never seem to be 'beamed' correctly and any little bump blinds oncoming traffic. IMHO if a driver can't see well enough with normal halogen lights then they shouldn't be driving!Handy Andy wrote: ↑Mon Dec 23, 2019 12:52 pm Limited market for right hand drive cars.

That said, I would have liked heated seats and windscreen - although I'm told that heated screens are more prone to breakage...

Secondly I had LED headlights on my Mazda and they were the best I have known - never had an issue with dazzle for other drivers. Didn't realise I would miss them so much.
Thirdly, If you say "if you can't see with halogen you shouldn't be driving" is missing the point. How about progress? You could have said the same thing about old 45w filament bulbs. If you can't drive with them then you shouldn't be driving (no need for halogen).
