No, its not.
A while ago some manufacturers decided to include the thickness of the rubber housing in the advertised specification of some locks. This was quite dishonest, as some give measurements for the steel, and others give the same measurements for steel plus rubber sheath.
The difficulty with that Abus in particular, is that there is little distinction between the Abus 40 Mini Red, and the Abus 401 Mini Yellow. Both are claimed to be 16mm, but are closer to 13mm for the yellow version, and possibly less for the red version.
