It is a hybrid. The battery recharges via drag on the axel when one lifts off the throttle. I'm not sure why the brakes don't work in combination, but if you watched the 24 hour of Le Mans this year they talked about it a lot. The other 2015 LMP cars have this system as well. Interesting thing is the Nissan system failed miserably while the Porsche system won them the race.
