Just because it's announced doesn't mean it's ready for market. Even the US didn't get it until late 2015, and they get everything first.
Ford didn't make it ready for market in Australia until mid 2016.
As for optional upgrade, it'll still cost money to engineer it. Sync 2 to Sync 3 isn't just a plug and play software update, I'm told it'll also require a hardware upgrade, so to make it work in an FGX will require engineering expenses, which would be pointless on a discontinuing model.
