Sorta. The current article's structure is supposed to be about 25% lighter than the EFT spacecraft. The EFT didn't have any life support, seats, etc. IIRC. It also didn't have the recently delivered ESA built service module. Instead, the capsule was attached to a boilerplate of the SM, again IIRC. Someone that keeps up with it better than me can chime in.
