Those numbers don't make sense.

I bet 41mpg with the hybrid will happen. Surely, more than 39.

Ford is on a roll.
Next up, Mustang.
Then, Taurus.
A year of EcoBoost Ford and Lincoln products will be fun too.
Will Fiesta be here in 2009?

I heard the Focus got moved up a couple months. So if unless the Fiesta got moved up, the Focus and Fiesta will launch at the same time.

^ last I saw
Fiesta was on schedule for Jan/Feb 2010 and
Focus, which had been set for "the end" of 2010 was just a bit ahead of schedule - not 10 months ahead

the 2009,2010 auto shows will be interesting since Ford its on a roll with all the products that are coming

Fusion
Milan
MKZ
Mustang
MKT
Focus
Taurus
Fiesta
Mercury Small car, im wondering could it be the Ka
refreshed Edge and MKX

and lets hope some surprises and has anyone seen the Edge with the sport package?

Well wescoent said that the Focus got moved up because of the federal loans.

[ausrutherford]

And I do believe that the press release a few months back said that the Focus was for mid-2010 so it got moved up to the Fiesta (and maybe Super Duty) time frame

^ I hope that's right, Ausrutherford. I really REALLY want a C2 Mercury!!!

Its more like C1 2.0. It has a wider stance and even more sport tuned. And Idk if the move up for the Focus will be the same for the Mercury.

I'm just (still) using "C2" to mean the next/global gen
(until Ford tells us its real name) cuz I've been saying "C2" for sooo long
but
imho Mercury's "small vehicle" will be global-Focus-based
plus
that "whitespace vehicle" will be a Merc too!

(I'd better stop before I start re-listing my whole Ideal Lineup)

I know its Focus based i just dont know if the Focus and Mercury will come out at the exact same time. And remember Ford did not release everything they are bringing out in the press release, they still have many things up their sleeves.

Ah
imho it'd be better if the intros were staggered
esp. if they're gonna make them less rebadge-y

Very true.

The Fusion looks great. Always liked the current one, but this one looks to be leaps and strides better. now let's hope for the same improvements in the interior...

Not quite but your close i did see two Nude testers out and about at MPG and the tailights are pretty similar but expect them to be more like Jalopniks renderings that they posted awhile back
