As long as the synthetic oil is of the correct viscosity for the engine, it can be used in a hybrid car. Hybrid cars have two engines - the gasoline powered one and the electric one. The gasoline powered pretty much like any other gasoline powered 4-stroke engine and uses the same kind of lubricants.
