Ford Motors, already under fire from President-elect Trump for importing cars from Mexico, will soon become the first U.S. automaker to import vehicles from India....

Yep.  It will be the B car that is currently made in Mexico.  The main B car markets are in APA, so Ford will make many of their B cars in India.  They are planning to export a rather small number to the US for the very small B car market here.  Every one of them that they sell in the US today represents a negative profit to Ford.  They would prefer to not even sell them here, but the Fed Gov't CAFE policy demands that they do have it available to US customers.
