But not in the U.S. (read about this on Slashdot)

I had a couple of Ford Fiestas, gassers. Liked the car. This doesn't look much like that one.

seems there reasoning is alot of BS, I believe this will come back to bite them in the ass one day.
Granted its a Ford and alot of people are going to be opposed to it at first because of the name anyway.

I saw that on another forum as well. Considering that VW is selling out of Jetta Diesels before they are on the lots (http://wot.motortrend.com/6266783/auto-news/diesel-friendly-dealers-selling-out-of-volkswagen-jetta-tdi/index.html) I think that Ford is making a huge blunder...
