Well when one considers this story, qualifying it with our knowledge of Bush and pretzels, it starts to form a pattern.

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.

I believe that hybrid means that it has both an electric and combustion engine, working in tandem. That can be gas/electric, hydrogen/electric, or any other combustible substance with electric. My question would only be why a hybrid needs an outlet, but that could just be to take some of the responsibility from the combustion engine. Damn, irresponsible combustion engine.
