There is no way C-Max is only 1400 kg.

It's made of plastic inside and out, the engine is a ticking bomb.

1400kg is to be expected.

Actually it makes sense. The Ford Focus Turnier is just under 1400kg, so this car being around 1425 (or at the very least 1475) isn't unrealistic.
Also that tiny engine carrying the weight reduction.

Crap? The police Interceptor uses the EcoBoost V6 since a while now so they do something right with these

I still need to understand why the JTDm engines perform so bad in rolling accelleration, it feels very quick driving it. Giulia with the same type of engine has much better results somehow?
