This is the sort of thing to expect in V2. The new units mostly have doubled abilities and/or high values and/or really strong skills.

I think it's fairly safe to say that V2 units power is generally half to a full star above what it shows. For this one it certainly fits well. His stats are in-line with other 4* units but his extremely strong skill and abilities that boost his stats significantly (as you wrote) take him much closer to being 5*.
