High Beams odd pattern

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
I bought a new 2022 Model 3 LR and noticed that the high beams have an odd 4 layer pattern.
The low beams are fine but the high beams are stratified in such a way that it has a very
distinct pattern of four horizontal layers with an obvious dimmer potion between each layer.
Plus the highest level is very high. More up in the sky then down the road. I had a tech person out
who claimed this was normal. He did not view the light patterns at night just dismissed my
concern with testing. I had a 2021 that didn't seem to have this issue.

Any ideas?
 
Normal. That's how the new matrix LED headlights are. The highbeams are actually an array of LEDs to eventually allow for selective dimming

The low beams do it too. If you are going around a slight curve, you'll see a couple areas where the light is dimmer, like a shadow. Takes a little getting used to but it's normal for the matrix headlights.
