Key word is could. Really depends on what we're comparing. Fridges without an external freezer are about as efficient as a new fridge. Of course such "efficiency articles" always bash on old fridges and seem to only compare the fridges with wasteful integrated freezers. Get a separate freezer chest and it'll also be way more efficient than a modern fridge freezer.

Might be worth plugging an old fridge into a meter and seeing how much power it uses before buying new.
