General

  • Regenerative braking helps recharge the battery, thus increasing the range. This can be done in three ways: – Coast regen – Decreasing the throttle will automatically enable coasting regen. – Brake regen – Engaging the brakes will enable brake regen. – Forced regen – Decreasing the throttle all the way to the negative throttle region triggers forced regen. This has the highest regen capacity.
