Ford Motor Co.’s new alliance with Alphabet Inc. unit Google could create an annual revenue stream of $9 billion and generate a gusher of $5 billion in profit for the automaker, according to an estimate by Morgan Stanley.

A new revenue source of that magnitude might double Ford’s $43 billion market capitalization and send its stock soaring to $25, up from less than $11 now, Adam Jonas, Morgan Stanley’s automotive analyst, wrote in a note to investors Tuesday.
