Yeah, drag is a huge factor, but also that's literally the reason for the port/direct fuel injection setup in these cars. Good economy below 4k, better power above.

Things like OFT simply adjust the changeover to help offset the torque dip on the gen 1 (and you take the economy hit).

I assume the new car has basically done that from the manufacturer as part of the solution (in addition to more displacement).
