that's not lying, it's always been like that. Manufacturers have always rated power by crankshaft horsepower. The only time they're lying is like Mazda when they recently overrated the RX8, significantly, such that dynographs were much lower than they should have been considering typical drivetrain losses.
So again, the manufacturers aren't lying. If anything, the new SAE rating standards
underrate motors compared to what they used to do.
