    I thought Mr Trump pretty much killed the idea of building cars elsewhere but the USA by slapping import taxes and all? Ford is dare to challenge him?!

    The Ford Fiesta isn't popular in the US. However, Ford Prefect, among a certain group, continues to be quite popular.

    Subcompacts, B class, in general aren't popular in the US. In the segment, the Versa is the best selling, but it is likely the cheapest out the door. The worst is the Rio, followed by the Sonic, and then everybody else, including the Fiesta, are at 40k to 50k sales year to date.
