Ford confirms hatchback Fiesta for the U.S.

As reported yesterday, Ford confirmed today that it will build the new Fiesta sedan at its Cuautitlan, Mexico plant starting 2010. But we have better news for all you hatchback fans; FoMoCo confirmed that it will add the hatchback version of the Fiesta lineup when it arrives in 2010.
Unfortunately, Ford did not say whether it will offer the three-door, five-door or both versions on the stateside. But some unofficial word from a Ford official at the plant said that the automaker will offer both versions alongside the sedan.
The Ford Fiesta will be priced under the larger Focus that starts at $15,000. Can we be greedy and ask for the Fiesta S too? Please?
Ford says that the plan will create 4,500 new jobs at the Cuautitlan, Mexico plant.
