That's what they are known for. The depth. Xenons are more so for a broader width and what's directly in front of you. Both are great and have their own unique attributes. I'd be happy with either or.

Those of you in the US considering the LEDs for the Anti-Dazzle feature to be coded...it's not going to happen because the European hardware is different from the US hardware. Just a disclaimer if that's one of your top reasons for choosing them.
