OK, cool, I gotcha, that clarification helped.Maybe I didn’t explain myself well. When using max gen you are breaking unnecessarily in a highway and you burn fuel to accelerate again. If you drive 4 hours you might recharge battery for around 5%. I don’t see the benefit of max gen in highway. Totally different for city driving
Yeah, I think you may be right, the more steady state highway type driving might not be good with MaxRegen - to be honest, I sort of stopped using it around town, I like to stop a bit more gradually, and now that I know that the generators are actually fired up pretty significantly during braking (w/o MaxRegen), for me, in terms of charging, it's probably a wash.
We have a couple of bridges we deal with pretty regularly, and with MaxR on, it actually slows =way= too quickly. I'll have to keep experimenting around town, our first EV of any sort, so I'm still getting used to some of the nuances.
