It's not coming to the US. (Last line in the article.)

I'd love it if it did. The pickins for solid front axle off-road vehicles have become slim. About all that's left are the Wranglers and giant brodozers, and I have no interest in either one. It looks like the resurrected Bronco will get a solid axle, so that may prompt some other manufacturers to rethink this idiotic idea that Americans only want IFS. A new Jimny/Samurai with solid axles would be a fantastic addition to the market.
