In Teslas, any time your foot is completely off the accelerator, you're getting maximum regenerative braking. If you then press the brake pedal too, you're getting maximum regenerative braking plus friction braking.
- potatochup 4y agoI think I misunderstood your use of "actual pedal" in the GP comment. You meant accelerator by that? I assumed brake pedal
- josephcsible 4y agoMy point was that unless you do something bizarre or go out of your way to make regeneration not happen (e.g., hit both pedals at once, or shift into neutral while braking), the friction brakes will never get used except for when full regen is already getting used.
- Tagbert 4y agoTeslas don’t use regen on the brake pedal. That is only using the friction brakes.
- josephcsible 4y agoRight, but they use regen just by releasing the accelerator. So unless you're hitting both pedals at once, you will be regenerating every time you're braking.
- sliken 4y agoIf you use both pedals at once it will reduce acceleration and warn you.
- Tagbert 4y agoDoes the one-pedal regen continue to operate when you are pressing on the brake pedal?
- josephcsible 4y agoYes.
