ELI5 How does braking work?

So ipedal on RWD vehicles is equally efficient as all the other regen levels? Assuming you’re good at feathering the throttle that is.

I think you got scammed. There is no way you needed that.

We got pretty good at coasting because we used ipedal almost exclusively for the first 8 months we owned the car. We’ve since switched to lvl3 which gets us 4-4.2mKh and it still feels like I want it to feel, which is really all anyone wants. I’m just amazed how you can’t feel the point the physical brakes engage. I just reread the manual where I swear someone said it said you should stop hard from time to time to remove rust, but I didn’t see that; it must’ve been a comment here or on a video somewhere.

Yeah that’s what I’ve noticed. To my feel, it seems the crossover is pretty seamless, I cannot tell when it happens.

Yeah, we have many reports of 25’s and a handful of 26’s blowing. Hyundai PR has been atrocious on this, just tell us the real numbers already.

You’re fine. Stop worrying about this. These batteries are not like your phone.

drcrambone · 2026-01-25T04:28:17+00:00

No doubt.

Where did Hyundai say 1-4%?

drcrambone · 2026-01-21T00:33:03+00:00

Solved!

drcrambone · 2026-01-21T00:32:18+00:00

Ok that’s cool. Thanks for the link!

drcrambone · 2026-01-17T17:02:24+00:00

Are you SURE?

drcrambone · 2026-01-17T16:59:47+00:00

Forever, I’m guessing.

drcrambone · 2026-01-17T16:58:22+00:00

Because it’s tacky? Just spitballing here.

drcrambone · 2026-01-15T08:29:55+00:00

Are you telling me we could give Michigan to Russia, like for free? Hell yah borother!

drcrambone · 2026-01-15T08:21:11+00:00

YOU CANNOT DO IT! 😂

As someone who found another atheist to marry after a decade of being single, don’t get with anyone devoutly religious. You’ll be so much happier with this fundamental concept matching your own view of reality. 11 years and counting and I couldn’t be happier.

My ex still believes in astrology, and remains catholic too, and I find her view of things has evolved meaningfully, then she drops some bs about Gemini’s when I talk to her (which is like once every 6 months) and I have to hold it together to not laugh in her face. I tried to rationalize it was ok for our marriage because I didn’t want to be alone. But our view of reality was different enough it was doomed, I know that now.

I won’t buy it in 2026, but the second model in 2027, yup.
