Hybrid qubits enable the hybridization of charge and spin degrees of freedom, which provides a way to realize both a relatively long coherence time and rapid qubit manipulation. Here, we use microwave driving to demonstrate the coherent operation of a tunable hybrid qubit, including X-rotation, Z-rotation, and rotation around an arbitrary axis in the X-Y panel of the Bloch sphere. Moreover, the coherence properties of the qubit and its tunability are studied. The measured coherence time of the X-rotation reaches ~ 14.3 ns. While for the Z-rotation, the maximum decoherence time is ~ 5.8 ns due to the larger sensitivity to noise. By employing the Hahn echo sequence to mitigate the influence of the low-frequency noise, we have improved the qubit coherence time from ~ 5.8 ns to ~ 15.0 ns. Our results contribute to a further understanding of the hybrid qubit and a step towards achieving high-fidelity qubit gates in the hybrid qubit.
