Are you serious. This test is completely wrong for a whole host of reasons, and will not even get close to the results of what the Ecoboost Falcon will achieve. They may as well have stuck a Lambo V12 in the Mondeo, the results would be as about as inaccurate.
The Ecoboost Falcon will have at least 175 kw and 350nm, very close to the I6 and at least 50-80kg lighter. Its power to weight and torque to weight will be very close to the I6.
Early indications are that the Falcon EB4 will use 8 or less L per 100, around 20% better than I6. They claim 0 to 6%.
