I doubt it. That's mostly down to the move to aluminium construction.
Don't think the clam adds much weight. The rear deck is now seamless, but it's no smaller than before, and there will no doubt be some me mechanism and complex hinges and servos to allow the rear to lift at one end automatically for the roof and open at the other for luggage access.
