That is the "low-beam" and it is what most people refer to when saying "headlight." The low-beam should be the main light that is on when driving. I hope you don't have your high-beams on as well when driving...the picture shows a Prius with both low and high-beams on (with one burned out low-beam).
The '13 Prius takes a H11 low-beam bulb, so what you want depends on do you want to see further, or do you just a long-life bulb that you don't need to replace yearly? You can't have both. If you want to maximize how far you see at night, then this is the bulb to get. If you just want to forget about bulb replacements for like 4+ years...then this would be it. And this would be a compromise between extended-life and high-output.
On my 12, I tried LED drop in replacements. They were OK for in city, but very lacking for rural driving. I went back to a long life bulb (Osram H11 LL) and am much happier.
I put about 5 hours a week on the bulbs and a bright bulb would only last half a year. These should last 1,000 hours. that would be a couple of years for me.
My OEMs lasted a good while, and I use them a lot because I head to work in the dark. After seeing how shockingly low the lifespans were for the bulbs in AutoZone, I replaced them with these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071H7CRZ8/, which apparently aren't really marketed much in the US. Perform like OEM, and had an longer expected life than anything else in aftermarket.
I guess I've had them for 2+ years now.
You can just remove both and install regular H11 bulbs. Cheaper and less chance of a dud.

Remember to never touch the glass part of the bulb, just the plastic base. Finding out as I get older most younger people don't know this anymore.
