Have you bought a PHEV? ... I wouldn't have thought this would be a 'thing' on a hybrid... (As in, what does it do if the battery is already full - when you're expecting some serious brakingPogleswood wrote: ↑Mon Aug 05, 2024 5:45 pm Another quick observation, the shift paddles only change gear in sports mode now, in eco they operate the 3 selectable levels of regenerative braking, which I’m really enjoying playing with, the only strange feature being that the minus paddle increases regen whilst the plus paddle reduces and turns off regen. In sport mode they still operate as before.
... which given the size of it, could easily be possible...)I've tried this one pedal driving malarkey - on a Kona EV, lent by the dealer, with max. regen enabled. I must say it wasn't love at first sight; I found it very odd sensation (even though the power-off nose-dive is actually no different to any motorcycle I've owned).
I did only drive 30 miles in the car though, no doubt you get used to it. (I remember thinking how weird cruise-control felt, all those decades ago!)
