    I love extending the life of mechanical brakes by using regenerative breaks. They also stop much quicker when they work together. The only downside is when the battery is full or topped off, regenerative breaks may not be available at first. What is VF doing to prevent this or considering so that we may have them available even at the start of the day? One workaround may be to not charge the battery to 100% so that you can keep the ability to regen*
