First, you’ll want to make sure you’re shopping for the right kind of bulb. H7 bulbs are a common bulb fitting for headlights. Technologically advanced Philips lighting is renowned in the automotive industry, and has been for over 100 years. The Philips Original Equipment Quality products are designed and developed following strict quality control processes (including applicable ISO norms), leading to consistently high production standards. Philips RacingVision GT200 is compatible with car models of major brands, such as Audi, BMW, Ford, GM, Toyota and Volkswagen. See the product selector guide for more information. This is the colour to expect from the bulbs in the Kelvin Colour Temperature Scale. Examples would be 3000K as a warm yellow lig Color temperature is an indication of colour and not to be confused with heat. Color temperatures over 5,000K are called cool co Software then measures the light at various points in the beam. It’s an unusual, if not unique, set-up, but the results have been corroborated by tests at parent company Osram’s conventional light tunnel in Germany, which we have used in the past.

So, how does the Philips WhiteVision Ultra hold up in comparison? Well, as anyone familiar with the WhiteVision series of car headlight bulbs might presume, the WhtieVision Ultra range is a Styling bulb, unlike the Performance bulb type of the RacingVision GT200. As such, the WhiteVision Ultra boasts a different but no less impressive set of lighting benefits. Introduced in Autumn of 2020 the new Philips RacingVision GT200 - with up to +200%[1] brighter light - was taking plaudits only weeks after its launch, by securing coveted “Recommended Buy” status by Auto Express magazine in its Headlamp Bulb Mega Test. Further recognition of RacingVision GT200’s exceptional performance and quality has followed recently, with the bulb now receiving a Commendation in Auto Express’s 2021 Product Awards, as well as also being judged “Best of Test” in leading French weekly motoring magazine Auto Plus’s recent bulb test - where it and other Philips bulbs proved to be the class of the field. The Philips brand has introduced almost every major innovation in automotive lighting over the last fifty years - halogen and then high-performance halogen bulbs, HID Xenon lighting, long-life halogen and LED lighting. Therefore, when a new bulb is introduced, which further pushes the boundaries of automotive lighting, it is not unexpected for it to have the Philips brand attached to it. Keep in mind, H7 bulbs are usually halogen bulbs. Xenon HID bulbs are a completely different category with different bulb types. Where the bold white light is a terrific stylistic feature of the Philips WhiteVision Ultra bulbs, it also has some practical benefits. Though the light output stretches no farther than standard, the outward appearance is undeniably more visually striking, and alerts other drivers to your presence. And the light's distinct 4200K colour temperature is also a closer match to daylight than standard, thus offering improved optical comfort when driving at night.
