Regen is also on display when going down a medium to long downhill grade - it’s quite expensive to move this car’s “a$$” up hill - but it’s zero cost to some recovery on the other side - I routinely recover 2-4% battery from the top of Hwy 17 in california down (either direcction) lowering the average cost of the segment to being not much more expensive than similar distance on flat terrain - with out regen and only coasting this would not be possible…
Regen has a dramatic effect on most any EV’s overall efficiency and elongates the time between required charges…just go drive up/down the grape-vine in Southern California if you don’t believe me…
