That is not true, you can drive the honda without petrol over 11 mph, it is not an advertised feature but exists never the less.
Hybrid as currently portrayed is limited in its appeal. But the theory that all energy lost in braking should be captured and re-used for acceleration cannot be questioned surely? It's just plain common sense.
