A vehicular vision system includes a camera configured to be mounted at an in-cabin side of a windshield of a vehicle and having a field of view exterior and forward of the vehicle. An ECU includes an image processor operable to process image data captured by the camera when the camera is mounted at the vehicle windshield. The ECU, responsive at least in part to processing of captured image data, determines lane markers ahead of the vehicle. The ECU determines a path of travel of the vehicle. The ECU, responsive at least in part to processing of captured image data, detects an object that is present forward of the vehicle. Responsive to determination at the ECU that the detected object is in the path of travel of the vehicle, an auxiliary light source of the vehicle is controlled by the ECU to enhance illumination of the detected object.
