It plans to replace them with PHEVs which they reckon will have an all EV range of about 40 miles.
These changes will take effect from the 2019  model updates.

No surprises there, the US has never really taken to diesel cars.

Over here the Vauxhall Corsa and Skoda Fabia have ditched their diesel engines.
