If anything I think this configuration will over deliver as Ford know they have some hurdles to jump to get the traditional buyers onboard.
However I expect 90% to go to cost and efficency concious fleet buyers so overall I think it will be a great addition to the Ford line up.

Agreed, there must be a few sales in fleet that must have a 4 banger...so why buy a Corolla (like most seem to be doing) when you can have fuel consumption close to with more practicality if you need to use it.
