I can't see the car losing much weight from losing two cylinders

as the weight of the turbo, and necessary plumbing parts probably offsets any weight reduction unless they did something more radical to the chassis and structure over the 981.

This rename and downsize of engine displacement was a great opportunity to lower the cars weight but it seems that they did not do so, at least not enough to brag about it in the marketing mix.
