One pedal drive
The braking behaviour changes through the use of the accelerator pedal. When you press the accelerator, the car accelerates as normal but releasing the pedal engages braking. The more you ease up on the pedal, the more braking action you get.
Regenerative braking is prioritised by One pedal drive. However, the disc brakes can be applied if the braking action demands it.
To conserve battery power, One pedal drive can be used in driving sessions where you expect to vary your speed.
Warning
Keep the brake pedal in mind
There is a limit to the braking force that can be applied by releasing the accelerator when using One pedal drive. For hard braking you need to use the brake pedal.
Note
Automatic disc brake engagement
One pedal drive primarily use regenerative braking. Therefore, it’s possible that the disc brakes won’t be engaged for long periods of time. To keep them clean, dry and ready for use, the car will regularly engage the disc brakes along with regenerative braking during light braking manoeuvres.
