The torque split of 40/60 is at the center differential.
To get the power to the rear, three gear meshes are required + the support bearings of the longitudinal driveshaft.
The resultant power split is closer to 45/55.

The X-type can be a little tail happy, but that could be fixed by installing a Quaife or torsen in the rear differential.
