As I understand it, the CNG engine is used to charge the batteries not run the vehicle.
The vehicle runs on batteries and the CNG engine charges the batteries. So, the actual energy to move the vehicle comes from the CNG engine. A plug-in option and regenerative braking would help efficiency. However, if the plug-in electricity source is fossil-fuel derived, it does nothing to help with carbon emissions.
