New Pepsi bottle coming soon to U.S.?

I was watching the Super Bowl ads at the USA Today website, and among them was the countdown to the Pepsi halftime show, and I found out at 0:23 this photo...



Does this mean that Pepsi will soon release a new bottle in the U.S. like in Mexico?

It actually looks a lot like the Mtn Dew sidekick bottles we've had for awhile now.

Found an Instagram of the new Pepsi glass bottle that appears on the Tate Stevens music video:

More instagrams... IMO this new Pepsi glass bottle looks a little bit like the vintage Squirt glass bottle, don't you think?

Ramon, thanks for those comments and images. Those actually look pretty nice! I wonder if there will ever come an update to the "Special Export" bottles that Pepsi brings into the USA. Pepsi really dropped the ball on the plastic swirl bottles - back when I worked for Pepsi one of the many bottled waters we distributed had a swirl look to it that was much more in line with the classic 1958 glass bottle than the "pinwheel" style that Big Pepsi chose to use. This new one, yeah it's Squirt-like, but it's also a lot closer to the Classic Swirl than I've seen Pepsi use since the final glass bottles that AD Heusing bought around year 2000.

I found another instagram... this time of the new Pepsi 20 oz. plastic bottle:



The new label looks a lot like the new Pepsi label in Mexico... although in this one the Pepsi globe is not bigger than the label.

IMO the new american bottle looks so much better than the new mexican bottle.
