Also they’re getting ride of the 2 and 6 speed and replacing it with 4 and 9 speed.

I'm assuming the 9 speed is a 3x3, but how are they getting the 4 speeds?

At a total guess, they could make the free hub wider inwards to take a fourth sprocket, which they can’t do with the IGH models. Would probably need a more elaborate shifting mechanism though.

Getting four sprockets on is no issue, just use a different hub body: the mech is the issue!
