    Regenerative braking is good thing, yes .But implementing it as one pedal driving is terrible. Other OEMs like Ford or VW blend regenerative braking into the brake pedal of their EVs such that it feels exactly like a normal car. The friction pads are there for either emergency braking or for bringing the car to a final stop after slowing down.

      I drive my Mach-E exclusively in 1-pedal. It’s a pretty quick transition.

      Probably easiest to make an analogy to the transition to analog sticks for gaming.

      It was a bit difficult but, once you get the nuance, it’s pretty game changing.
