A vehicular headlight includes at least one light source that emits light when in use, a reflector having a main reflection surface so positioned relative to the light source as to reflect any light reaching the same from the light source in the form of at least a low light beam delimited at least by an upper light/dark boundary at its upper region as considered in the position in which the headlight is to be used, and a light-transmitting plate extending across the path of the light beam at a distance from the light source and at least substantially devoid of any optically active profiles. A reflection element is further provided that is integral with the reflector and has an additional reflection surface deviating in configuration from that of the basic reflection surface to reflect any light reaching the same from the light source in the form of an additional light beam to an additional region situated upwardly of the upper light/dark boundary.
