An interesting thought. At first, I was thinking saving the brake energy and that will help but it would need to be something with more 'umph' than a chemical battery. Ultra capacitors come to mind.
Then I realized the second advantage is keeping the gas engine in a more efficient energy range and using the hybrid drive to handle marginal areas. It could work.
