DF140 = 140hp. What they lack is the torque of a V6 150 two-stroke.
FWIW, my 18 did 45 (not 50) with a the 150 V6 at 5500 with the a stainless prop. I expect we'll see 44 once the Suzuki has the correct pitch stainless prop on it.
The DF140 trolls very nicely, super quiet and burns about 1 litre per hour. I think WJD is making a sound decision with this engine choice. The Troll Mode switch and matching Tach combo is $150 well spent as well.
