Default Ux250h 2wd vs awd differences

Hi everybody.
I'm a ux250h luxury 2019 owner and I'm writing from Italy (so forgive me for my poor writing english).
In Italy there aren't Lexus forum (or they are not so crowded), and I have a question that I can't answer.
I've recently bought a 2019 ux250h (registered in 22.10.2019), luxury tream with luxury pack (ventilated seat).
The Lexus dealership sold me the car as 2wd, but when I've registered the car on the lexus website with the VIN number, it seems to be 4wd (they say hybrid transmission 4x4 cvt).

So, the question is: what' the differences between 2wd and awd?
I have no extra space under the boot, but in the display I also have not the image of the second rear electric engine like there is in my 2019 Rav4.

On the registration document there is written 103 gr co2/km and not 97 (on the use and manteinance book 97 is for 2wd, 103 is for 4wd).

Could you help me? There are other differences from the two versions?
Thank you!

I believe all UX250h's are the same. The front wheels are powered by the gas motor (and maybe electric motor too?) while the rear wheels are powered by an electric motor. They're all AWD.

In 2023, Lexus started producing FWD UX's. So they are now, not all AWD.

Thanks for the advice. Would there also be a difference in the hybrid status display monitor (would it show power to and from the rear axle)?
