Does the Q7 know the "if the wipers are on, turn on the headlights" rule?

I've noticed that whenever the wipers are on, the MMI screen doesn't change to night mode, but when you're behind another car, the Xenon low beams are on. We just leave it in auto.

Pretty cool, if you ask me!

Do low beams come on when the wipers activate by autosensing mode as well? Or only if you manually turn them on?

Default I just noticed this same thing recently...

...and was going to post the question. I had wipers (and lights) on auto, and it seemed that even though the dash did not light up (or nav map go to night mode) the headlights came on while driving on a rainy day. I was pretty impressed!
