Material/Construction | Budget vehicles, mass production | Industry: Plastic (ISO 22240 compliant) (lightweight, cost-effective) ▲ Base: Plastic (same) ▲ Advanced: Plastic+Glass (ASTM D638, 50MPa tensile strength) (enhanced durability) | Lightweight (20% weight reduction), cost-effective | Plastic only may scratch easily, Advanced adds cost |
Lighting Technology | Standard illumination vs high visibility | Industry: Halogen (800 lm, IEC 60598) (standard brightness) ▲ Base: Halogen (same) ▲ Advanced: Xenon (1500 lm, IEC 61347) (50% brighter) | Halogen compatibility, Xenon's brighter light | Halogen consumes more power, shorter lifespan |
Certification Standards | Legal compliance vs harsh environments | Industry: E/e-Mark (legal standard) ▲ Base: E/e-Mark ▲ Advanced: IP67 (IEC 60529) (dust/waterproof) | Legal compliance, Advanced offers environmental protection | Advanced adds cost and weight |
Voltage Compatibility | Niche 6V models vs most vehicles | Industry: 12V (SAE J538) (universal) ▲ Base: 6V (specific application) (limited use) ▲ Advanced: 12V (universal) | 6V fits niche, 12V universal | 6V limited compatibility, 12V may need adapters |
Light Color & Visibility | Regulatory compliance vs low-light needs | Industry: Red (80% reflectivity, ASTM F800) (meets regulations) ▲ Base: Red (same) ▲ Advanced: Red (95% reflectivity) (15% better visibility) | Compliance, Advanced improves visibility | Standard may suffice, Advanced adds cost |
Design & Aesthetics | Basic styling vs performance vehicles | Industry: Functional (basic styling) ▲ Base: Sleek geometric design (ISO 3971) (modern look) ▲ Advanced: Aerodynamic (15% drag reduction, SAE J1133) (improves fuel efficiency) | Modern look, Advanced improves fuel efficiency | Advanced may be more expensive |
