As Tesla Motors Inc. and Toyota Motor Corp. conclude an initial vehicle project that met with mixed results, Elon Musk, Tesla¡¯s chief executive officer, said his company may form another partnership with the giant Japanese carmaker.

¡°If you look out maybe two or three years from now, I would not be surprised if there was a significant deal with Toyota and Tesla,¡± Musk told reporters Monday in Tokyo.

While Tesla and Toyota have no definitive plans, Musk said he envisions a larger project than their deal for the RAV4 electric vehicle.
