Possible. But, one would imagine, that if Ford Australia has gotten a Federal Government grant for the I4T, there would be some contractual arrangement in place with the Feds to actually delivery something. (Remember that there was no funding for the Focus.)
Also, recall that various State Governments have a love affair with 4-cylinders, because it appears to be more environmentally friendly. One would think that Ford Australia could reassert its “Buy Australia” play for the Falcon because it does have 4-cylinders.
While I would never say never, the I4T does seem to be real goer.
But, there should be no doubts about the diesel and the LPG options. I would image that Marin Burela would consider giving his leftie for diesel Territory a few months back.
