With the stated over 12 sec 0-60 time in a Focus, it's a good bet they will put it in the Fiesta for the US, since we couldn't stand anything that slow to 60 MPH.
In a Fiesta it should be close to 45-50 MPG combined with good gearing, much more if driven properly.
What would really be nice would be a 2 door Fiesta without all of the junk added, but then that will never happen. Either transmission would be fine as long as they got the final drive ratio low enough for 2100 at 70 MPH. Add a couple of feet to the rear to get the aero drag even lower than maybe .24.
