Abstract: A headlight for a motor vehicle composes at least two semiconductor-light sources and a plurality of light refractors and/or reflecting optics. Light of each of the semiconductor-light sources is directed into a front area of the headlight such that the light produces at the front area a rule-consistent light distribution. An illuminated section of the light distribution of a first of the semiconductor-light sources is not identical with an illuminated section of a second of the semiconductor-light sources. The first semiconductor-light source defines a first construction type and the second semiconductor-light source defines a second construction type. The first construction type defines higher luminous flux and lower efficiency relative to luminous flux and efficiency defined by the second construction type.

Advantageously, the curvature of the light-emitting surface (7.4) has no points of inflection. A light-receiving surface (7.5) of the lens arrangement (7) is advantageously configured such that, in combination with the light-emitting surface (7.4), specifiable projection characteristics of the individual lenses (7.1, 7.2, 7.3) result.
