RWD regenerative braking

[5ohbrad]

Has anyone experience regenerative braking with a rear drive only EV? Every vehicle I’ve driven with 1 pedal driving has had motors on both axles. From what we know, it’s a rear mount driven axle. The battery is situated under the passenger compartment, slightly to the rear suggesting at least a slight rear bias. Anyone with single motor Tesla with experience on how this affects driving dynamics?

I have a Mustang Mach E premium 2 Wheel Dr. with an extended battery. It is a rear wheel drive only car. It’s great. It handles well no issues. The regenerative breaking works fine.

I fully expect the rear wheel drive for slate will be just fine considering that the motor is at the rear axle.

It's fine.

Regenerative braking is somewhat unlike disc. In that most of the time it is a smoother, graduating braking/slowing. It starts sort of slowly and does more easing in to a stop. It can take a bit to get used to it. I have 2 Tesla’s with the first in 2018.
