You get better regenerative braking performance out of FWD or AWD. Since typically the front brakes do most of the work, it makes sense to have that energy go into the motor rather than friction braking.
- kgermino 5mo agoThat's true, but if you stay in the regenerative zone it doesn't (seem to) make that much of a difference in practice. All the braking power happens in the rear if you only brake the rear wheels
- wat10000 5mo agoTraction is very rarely the limiting factor with regenerative braking even when it's only on the rear wheels.
