A lighting and/or signalling device includes a container body having containment seats housing at least one light source for emitting light. A lenticular body closes the containment seats and is suitable to receive the beam of light and propagate it. A first lighting portion diffuses light of a predefined color, delimited by a first optic filter, having a first color different from the predefined color. Each light source is inside the containment seat and receives the beam of light, propagates it along a light guide body and emits it across the lenticular body. A second optic filter has a second color. The light produced by each light source and filtered by the second and by the first optic filter comes out of the lenticular body having the predefined color. The first optic filters are the same color so as to prove substantially indistinguishable when the respective light sources are deactivated.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a vehicular lamp which creates light directed upward using a reflector that allows the light incident below the lower end of the lens to exit upward through a lens and which minimizes the uneven light distribution of the created light distribution pattern. The vehicular lamp according to the present invention includes: a semiconductor light source unit (20) including a light-emitting chip (21); a horizontally long lens (30) disposed in front of the light source unit (20); and a reflector (40) positioned between the lens (30) and light source unit (40) and disposed below the light-emitting chip (21) along a vertical direction. The reflector (40) includes a reflection surface (41) for creating a plurality of virtual focal points intersecting a vertical axis passing through the light emitting center O of the light-emitting chip (21). The distribution of light from the reflection surface (41) is controlled so that light is emitted from a light emitting surface (32) vertically below the optical axis Z of the lens (30). The lens (30) is formed such that, when a point light source is assumed on the optical axis Z, first direct light LM on the optical axis Z emitted from the point light source is distributed upward from the light emitting surface (32).
