What specifically is the evidence for that? Where did that tidbit come from?
He's probably thinking of the information in this article, which appeared last month in the LA Times (and probably other sources, as well).

Of course, as it says in the article, many of those who trade in a hybrid do so on full-electric cars. What it doesn't say is that none of them do so on hydrogen cars. Oops!
