Abstract
A headlamp that projects light forward includes: a low beam light source module; a reflector disposed in a path of light from the low beam light source module; and a first lens body and second lens body disposed farther forward than the low beam light source module and the reflector. The reflector reflects first light and second light, which are portions of the light from the low beam light source module, toward the first lens body and the second lens body, respectively. The first lens body transmits and projects, to a first region, the first light reflected by the reflector. The second lens body transmits and projects, to a second region larger than the first region and including a region closer to the headlamp than the first region, the second light reflected by the reflector. The first light is higher in luminous intensity than the second light.
