Trends tell us that the name would be revived in China at some point.

Although I have to say Ford’s sedan lineup is very, very weak in China, compared to Chevrolet and VW.

VW has like 12(!!) sedans in their lineup... including 2 versions of the Phaeton.

At least we’ll see more Accords and Corolla and Civic hatches in the place of the Fusion and Focus. Unfortunately we’ll also see even more of those hideous Camrys.

With their current naming scheme, they’d have to call it the Fempo.

They stopped the F-only names a decade ago... hence, we still have the Mustang, the Taurus name came back and we got a Ford Transit.

Those are all nameplates that date back decades before the F naming convention.
