Diesel Yaris coming to US?

Anyone have any idea whether Toyota will offer the Yaris D-4D in the US in the future? The fuel economy specifications translate to about 55 mpg (US gallons) which beats the Prius on the highway. The new diesel regulations and wanting to keep the Prius as the most fuel efficient US model that Toyota offers probably mean that it will not be coming. A Yaris with a diesel engine capable of using biodiesel would be an awesome "green machine," but sadly probably will not be built out of fear of canabilizing the sales of the Prius.
