Real shame.
Technically any platform that supports AWD is RWD compatible. That means that the majority of platforms supporting FWD vehicles today could be used as the basis for a RWD vehicle too. Yet none are. Particularly telling is that all manufacturers who currently offer both FWD and RWD vehicles have specific platforms for each of those drivetrain types, even when some of the products offered across the two are the exact same size.

That's a pretty creative way of interpreting "I wouldn't bet against you on it being FWD".
