Ford hasn't given any indication that it will come to the U.S.I'm a bit confused on what Ford is doing now. They are now making a Fiesta Active to go along with the Focus Active.

Yes, that's what I wasn't sure about. It's unknown whether it's coming to the U.S or not. Probably not, but Ford is so wishy-washy lately, who knows.Ford hasn't given any indication that it will come to the U.S.
So now we know who inside Ford made the decision to pull out of the car business. Ford is in free fall.

If you aren't reading Pete DeLorenzo's blog, you are missing the high-octane truth.
Ford said that they WON’T invest in any new Sedan in the US. So nope, ain’t gonna happen.Good article.
I understand axing the Fiesta too close to Focus, and the Focus has a wide range including RS to power sales.
I understand axing EITHER ONE of Taurus or Fusion, axe one, keep one. But don't understand axing both.
Unless they plan on making a 4 door car based on the Mustang frame... like GM makes Cadillacs and Camaros based on the same frame. Dodge Charger-esque. Maybe possible? I think this may be the real secret that noone knows! S650 may be all new lightweight frame to compete with GM Alpha platform... shared frame with a new 4 door Ford.
Apparently the “Active Lineup” will be wide.... hahahaNothing really confusing about it - they're just being consistent with their statement of going full Truck/SUV/CUV.
I'm a car guy, but a Focus Active RS would be a wicked fun ride during the winter in my neck of the woods.
Not sure what you mean.
Might want to read this... before jumping to any conclusions.
You might want to let us know, what you know... is the baby bronco cancelled..?
Kinda old but gives you insight to Mr. Farley's mind. Even if you hate GM, this is pretty much over the top...If Farley is actually ALLOWED to go on being that unhinged, the company has much bigger problems than the decision to axe cars/sedans.
That paints a rather bleak outlook for the future of the company in general.

Excellent point.Depending on what happens with gas prices due to the situation with Iran, Ford may come to deeply regret this.
Why..? If gas prices go up, it directly benefits Ford's plan.Depending on what happens with gas prices due to the situation with Iran, Ford may come to deeply regret this.
Ford's ultimate plan is to hybridize everything, so gas prices are completely irrelevant. All of these SUVs/CUVs are going to get high 20s to low 40s in MPG.Depending on what happens with gas prices due to the situation with Iran, Ford may come to deeply regret this.
