This will be interesting- the Mustang already took a leap when it adopted four-cylinder power, and odds-on it will downsize and become Atkinson cycle for the hybrid application. I'm guessing a lightweight battery pack will be implemented. Or maybe it will be a 48V mild-hybrid for the V8? The more powerful the motor, the less work the engine has to do... F-150 is more interesting, especially if it adopts a four-cylinder engine to supplement its electric motor. Will it get market acceptance in Murica? Looking forward to the Transit hybrid and autonomous ride-sharing car but dunno if they'll come here. Imagine if they called it Falcon... ( ah scratch that don't want a ban  )
