Remove sunglasses when driving @ night...

Seriously? LEDs not bright enough? Some people have swapped out their Xenon headlamps because they perceive an improvement with LEDs...
One drawback - wait til it's time to replace - it's the entire headlamp! No LED replacement, like replacing a bulb in earlier headlamp implementations.


Could it be cataracts?

Headlights are excellent. Something is wrong w/ your Macan. Have dealer check it out.

The first time I drove my Macan at night I thought I had the brights on. Then I turned on the brights and was in awe. But, I was used to a less impressive set up on my Acura.
What was she driving before?

Was it a dreary, wet night? Sometimes certain conditions can make the lights look subpar. With that being said, my Macan's lights are excellent.

Yes it was a dreary, rainy & misty night. It was her first night in the car. We will check it out this evening now hat the rain has stopped.

I dont understand this. Your wife says this to you in her first drive yet your first reaction/instinct is to post to forum and ask for advice instead of yourself driving the car at night and checking it out? What happened to us, when have we gotten so lazy. Next question : my wife says car uses too much gas.

My only comment is that I think the headlights need to be aimed higher,,,at 60 mph I am "over-driving" the lights
I mentioned it for the 10,000 mil service, but they did not adjust them

I observed the LED high beams on my 2022 Cayenne are not as bright to my eyes as my 2014 Panamera xenon high beams but LED low beams are definitely brighter in comparison.

Driver's side headlamp is supposed to be a little lower than passenger side to prevent blinding oncoming traffic. It's possible it could be too low but they are not supposed to be even. Either way, having a service department take a look and advise is probably the wisest thing to do.

Yep. When wet and dreary, the spectrum of white LED can appear less than ideal. Especially if one is used to the yellow spectrum of halogens or even older HIDs.
