    You are right for hard or emergency braking, but Hyundai’s regenerative braking at max is intended to be one pedal driving, and it easily stops you completely in a fairly short distance. I guess that isn’t the way others are doing it. I can get away with only using the brakes at the first stop sign near my house when I leave with a full charge, as the regenerative brakes don’t work when it can’t charge the battery. But I am sure I will still have to change the brake pads eventually anyway, which I would normally do myself during a seasonal tire changeover, so this news sucks.

      Oh yeah, you’re right. We had a BMW i3 for a long time and it also had good one pedal driving. I managed to forget about that since the Taycan doesn’t have one pedal driving basically at all
