Honestly, I'm confused as to why a car referred to as a "hybrid" would have a hydrogen tank in the first place. Generally cars under the definition of "hybrid" as I understand it have a gas tank and batteries and no place or need to plug anything in. A hydrogen car wouldn't need to be plugged in since it would work off the same flywheel concept that makes a hybrid a hybrid. Then again, it's entirely possible that this is something I've never heard of, which makes all of my wonderment a moot point.
