You can download the RM from the NXP website but you need an account for
it:
https://www.nxp.com/products/processors-and-microcontrollers/arm-processors/i-mx-applications-processors/i-mx-8-applications-processors/i-mx-8-family-arm-cortex-a53-cortex-a72-virtualization-vision-3d-graphics-4k-video:i.MX8

Or is this the wrong model? The naming scheme is quite confusing to me.

According the RM there is a bit which can be read: Multi Vref
Implemented (MVI).
