Obviously, these engines aren't in the same car - or even same kind of car.

I would imagine that most cars with 300 kW motors are luxury cars, sports cars or trucks while most of the ones sporting 60 kW motors are economy cars.

Sure - and it shows that opting for sports cars, excessive luxury or excessively sized cars is costing dearly in fuel use.

Put the same motor in the same car and I'll bet the difference would be much less significant.

Well, nobody does that.
The wasteful engines come standard with the sports or luxury car badge.
