'12 EcoBoost to '15 EcoBoost

Picked up a '15 last week with the 3.5 EcoBoost in it. I got rid of a '12 with the 3.5 EcoBoost. I get so much better gas mileage with the '15 around town than I did with the '12. Same crew cab body configuration. I was getting low 14's with the '12 and im getting mid 16's in the '15. This is per the display, but still. Are the newer EcoBoosts that much better, or is the aluminum body allow that much better. I was very surprised as I drove around town as usual to and from work and the MPG on my display were going up.
