Hybrid mode when low on fuel

Hi guys.

I've been driving through Europe for 2 weeks I just came home yesterday
And the last miles from home my fuel was nearly emty and I was curious how much fuel I had on reserve.
As I was paying attention to the fuel so I didn't ran out..
Suddenly the car went into hybrid mode..
I was shocked becaus my car is not an hybrid car..
So Im really curious what is this mode
Does someone know about this mode and how it works.
I read the instructions book that came with the car but nothing..

I very often drive on fumes (I can take the risk as always have 5 liters in the trunk), but never seen this hybrid mode kick in.

MB’s of all kinds.
Are you sure it is not just a mode similar to deactivation mode where you run on half of the engines power?

What the heck is hybrid mode (on a non hybrid car) and what makes you think you were in it?
