We ARE talking the ECO model?!?
Weight is up, actually, unless you get the Two Eco. 2015 weighs 3,042 lbs (across all trim levels, according to Toyota, except PiP); 2016 Two weighs 3075 lbs; Three and Four weigh 3050; Three and Four Touring weigh 3080. The only trim that got lighter is the Eco, at 3010 lbs, and it loses the spare tire that comes with all 2015 trims.

Edit: Whoops--I misspoke. Toyota quotes the 2015 at 3072 lbs on their website; earlier years were 3042 lbs (they added some material in 2014 to improve offset crash test ratings, which probably accounts for part of that gain).
