ABSTRACT:
A lighting device (100) for an automobile has a light source (101), a reflector (102), and a convergent lens (103) positioned in front of the reflector in order to form an illuminating light beam. The reflector is of the hyperbolic type with an internal focus (F.sub.1), and an external focus (F.sub.2) positioned behind said reflector in a region of the focus of said convergent lens, the light source being placed in a region of the internal focus of said reflector so that the latter forms a virtual light source in the region of the focus of said convergent lens.
