They still rely on friction brakes. Especially at low speeds and/or heavy braking, which is what most braking in cities is. I've been driving hybrids for the past five years and in my experience even in heavy traffic friction brakes aren't used nearly as much as in regular ICEs. There's a constant, thin layer of rust on my rotors that I just can't scratch off in any way short of braking on an off-ramp on a highway. I imagine EVs, having overall better regenerative braking, rely even less on their rotors.
