Talk about confusing to the consumer !

Yeah I’m still confused what that engine is exactly. I know P300 stands for the almost 300 HP it has, but is it MHEV or not (even if it’s the same HP and name as the 4 cylinder)? Some sites say it is, even on LR’s official stuff, and others say it’s not. If it does, how is it detuned, no turbo or supercharger like the P400 or what? I ended up ordering the 2023.5MY 130 SE which has the P400.
