In a one-pedal setup if you jerk your foot off the pedal it'll immediately start slowing down significantly. In the majority of situations you will react significantly faster with one-pedal driving than without. The only exception is if you're hovering over the brake pedal. Not my style, but to each their own.
- amluto 3y agoSure, you react faster. With the wrong reaction in an emergency. In a traditional (automatic, anyway) car, there is one way to brake. You brake lightly if you want to brake lightly, and you brake harder to stop faster. In a one-pedal EV, you lighten up on the accelerator to slow down a bit, and you remove your foot entirely and put it somewhere else to stop faster. I would love to see NTSB or a similar group do actual simulator studies to see how normal people react.
