My machine was delivered with a Baratza grinder (ordered 10 Oct 2024). In my case, the grinder was set quite coarse by default and had to be set to a finer level for normal use. (described in the manual)
The scope of delivery should be the same for both colour versions of the Sage Barista Pro. I own the black Sage Barista Pro and the scope of delivery included: 53mm tamper, single cup sieve, double cup sieve, single cup sieve (double walled), double cup sieve (double walled), portafilter, milk jug (480ml), cleaning tool (brush and another tool), cleaning tablets, silicone insert for rinsing the portafilter, Razor precision dosing tool and a water filter (needs to be replaced after 3 months).
Both models are the latest portafilter machines. They are supplied with an integrated European Baratza® precision grinder with 30 grinds. At the touch of a button, the integrated precision conical burr grinder made of hardened stainless steel with dosage control delivers exactly the right amount of coffee and ensures a perfect flavour.
The temperature is regulated automatically.
Every model of theirs has actually had the adjustable precision movement for over 10 years. And no, it's not the latest model as far as I know that two latest
The shelf, or more specifically the heating plate of the Sage the Barista Pro, cannot be permanently deactivated, but it only heats up when the machine is in use and a specific programme or function is activated. The machine's ThermoJet heating system heats up very quickly and also cools down quickly when not in use, which means that the heating plate does not stay warm all the time when the machine is not in use.

No, it "only" makes espressos - but it has a hot-water nozzle right next to the brewing unit with which you can "dilute" the espresso directly and then have a very fine "Americano" - or even a "normal coffee".
