I've noticed online that some pictures of the Mazda CX-30's front lower turn signals that double as the DRL's are a whiteish LED color when lit, instead of the amber yellowish color. Is it location specific or are they changing the LEDs themselves?

The turn signals double as DRLs? On mine the DRLs are within the headlight assembly. The turn signals double as parking lights.

Yes my lower turn signals are always on, lit up in an amber color. I consider that drls. I don't believe they turn off when I'm actually driving in the car is in motion 😂 no I can't see the front of my car when I'm driving lol.

I did see the front of my car when pulling in a parking lot in front of an all-glass building. Until then I was thinking that the DRLs were sharing space with the turn signals but nope, EU-spec CX-30 has the DRLs in the headlights.

I will have to set up my phone camera something to watch me pull in to find out it they do switch off while I'm driving here in the USA

The amber turn signal lights do NOT stay lit during the day on the US models. The only DRLs on the car are the headlights themselves.

here are the DRL's for my Canadian model

Interesting. On my EU-spec there's another bulb in each headlight, towards the grille, that's acting as DRL.

The EU-spec has 3 types of headlichts.

The design-pack has this one...Here only daylights on.

 

[marksman]

Yup, that's like mine. I have the "GT Plus" version, which is the highest trim here, but without any other option package.

huh.. very intresting GT plus trim level.. i wonder whats dirrerent from the canada GT top trim model to youres GT plus.

 

[Tommieremix]

I can confirm my Premium model on the US indeed has the amber DRL lights that are tied with turn signals, are lit as well while driving. I was behind a shiny truck and saw that they where lit

You must be manually turning your headlights on then during daylight driving conditions. If i wasn't feeling so lazy, I'd go take a pic for you. On my car, there are no amber DRLs. The only DRLs on my car are the headlights....that's it.

 

[Tommieremix]

Yes I always drive with my headlights on. So that must be why they are lit while I drive.
