Wink 2010 MDX & Cash for Clunkers

According to the below article, only certain models of the MDX will qualify for the $ for Clunkers program. Is there a hybrid, diesel, FWD or some other gas saving measure in store for 2010 ... ?

Under the CARS program, government vouchers will be issued to participating dealers for $3,500 or $4,500 (the amount depends on the difference in fuel economy between the older vehicle replaced versus the new model purchased) for new vehicles purchased by qualifying customers. Acura vehicles likely to qualify for government vouchers are the 2009-2010 TSX four-cylinder sports sedan, the turbocharged RDX crossover SUV, and certain models of the 2010 MDX luxury sport utility vehicle that will become available later this year.

It's probably just not the entertainment versions. I guess they figure if you have that much money to get the top of the line, the last thing you need is a government handout.

Car has to be $45K or less.

Something else to think about:

Vouchers don’t come as an addition to trade-in values because cars brought in under the cash-for-clunkers program have to be scrapped, so their trade-in value is essentially zero.

Lightbulb 6 Speed

According to TOV, the MDX will get a 6 speed automatic for 2010 so perhaps that is part of the equation:
2010 Acura MDX Luxury SUV

The 2010 Acura MDX features substantial improvements which increase performance and efficiency while also raising the level of luxury and prestige the MDX currently enjoys. For those customers who want the latest in customer enhancing technologies, the MDX will offer a new “Advance” package.
MDX
