I'm not sure you watched the video as this is an in depth look into Toyota's Syndergy drive system. He touches on plug-ins briefly, but the main focus is the replacement of a traditional transmission with the hybrid system allowing the ICE engine to use a more efficient thermal cycle spending more time in its efficiency zone.
I haven't watched the video, but phevs work the same way (apart from possibility to charge them)
That depends on the brand. Other companies went other directions.
PHEVs that don't recuperate/reuse energy as you go are super rare now
