Pretty much, the two companies are going to work together to produce better hybrid technology faster.
Quote:
The deal will work this way: Ford and Toyota will be equal partners creating a new rear-wheel-drive hybrid system. Most of their hybrid work to date has been on front-drive vehicles (sometimes with the hybrid electric motor driving the rear wheels to create a sort-of all-wheel-drive vehicle). When the component technology work is complete, the two will integrate the technology in different ways into pickup trucks and SUVs due to arrive before the end of the decade.
