What Is Regenerative Braking and How Does It Work?
21 Aug 2022 | Abstracted from Toms Guide
"Regenerative braking kicks in as soon as the driver takes their foot off the accelerator pedal. The electric motor, which powers your wheels, then switches directions and begins running in reverse...sending power back into the battery.
"..the wheels become a miniature generator, producing electricity as the motor's magnetic field rotates through the stationary stature. This process also produces resistance, which slows you down."
