Not yet. Maybe :grum: by 2009 if we are lucky. When ever the passat is able to bring thier 2.0L back into the states. That's probably close to when the caliber is able to bring it to the states.
Plus when you look at the MPG. Remember, it's UK gallons. Not US gallons.
I haven't done the conversion.
