Some EVs and hybrids have a 'one foot driving' mode where if you take your foot off the gas, it does start to actively brake and you will eventually come to a complete stop. Technology Connections did a video on it a little while back, showing how it can be bad if the brake lights aren't programmed to come on in this situation.

Most have KERS. This is what it is. My brake lights go on when it hits a certain % of KERS full effect.

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
