Only that it's slower and heavier. Should change that to "not AS well". Also the P1 seems to employ throttle sharpening better with its system mapping it seems.

Apparently McLaren felt regen brakes ruin brake feel in such a car and I'd have to agree as one who also has a hybrid, so that would not be ideal for the Supra but might be necessary if they wanted to keep up the SoC.
