Regenerative Braking
Regenerative braking takes some of the energy from the moving vehicle and turns it into electrical energy.
This energy is then stored in the vehicle's high voltage battery system, contributing to increased fuel efficiency.
The system works whenever the accelerator pedal is released, and increases the energy captured as more brake pedal is applied.
