Comparing to a stationary genset, which is either unregulated or subjected to a less stringent regulation, a propulsion ICE will most likely be cleaner overall. But if we consider an ICE built into a hybrid car, while it drives the generator it won't be allowed to be as dirty as a stationary genset not even if it's providing stationary power to the household during an emergency.
