Toyota. They'll let Ford and VW lie about it, that's fine, but the big tell will be the "transmission." If it has an "eCVT" it's another way of saying there is no transmission, just a power split device. If it has an actual mechanical CVT like Subarus and shit, it's not a Toyota-licensed design and it's inferior. If these companies license Toyota tech now, Toyota can just quit making cars and sleep on stacks of hundred dollar bills.
