It DOES bring them to a stop in newer models. Not sure which year it started but it's been at least 2 But I know what you mean from my older models

- actinium226 3y agoAre you talking about the hold mode they introduced a couple years back? It will bring the car to a stop but (as compared to the previous mode where you had to press the break yourself below ~4-5 mph), but I'll be good money it's using the brakes to do so. Particularly when it's activated on an incline.
- jader201 3y agoI drive an EV6, and I’m almost confident it uses (or can use) regenerative braking to come to a complete stop. If I use the ePedal or the brake paddle, the stop is super gradual and you never feel the “grab” that you feel when using the brake. Also, I can sometimes feel/see it slightly rolling (so it’s not even truly a complete stop). I’ve seen some people swear that the EV6 always uses friction braking at stops, but again, I’m pretty sure this just isn’t true.
- imp0cat 3y agoIt's probably using mechanical brakes just to anchor itself while stopped (automatic parking brake).
