Default 2011 S40 - Where is the AWD?

My girlfriend and I are shopping for a new S40. She loves everything about it, but we couldn't get a 2010.

Now that we're looking at the 2011 models, we don't see the AWD in the lineup, which sucks because that's what she wanted so badly.

Have they discontinued AWD in the S40 for 2011?

If not, when will 2011 S40 AWD come out?

Thanks for the help!

From Edmunds.com...

With the cancellation of last year's base engine, the S40 is now offered solely with a turbocharged 2.5-liter inline-5 that pumps out 227 hp and 236 pound-feet of torque. A standard five-speed automatic routes power to the front wheels -- all-wheel drive is no longer available.

I have no idea why AWD was discontinued- maybe low sales?
