What's the Engine Stop/Start Mechanics

Does anyone know the mechanics of the engine stop/start method for the B48's. Specifically for the 2019. Does it use the starter-motor method, a compressed cylinder-air method, or an injection method similar to the i-Stop that Mazda uses. My friend who is a mechanic was riding with me and, by the sound of it, didn't think it was the starter motor method.

If anyone knows and could share a link, that would be great.
