As more and more people become eco-conscious and want to minimize the environmental footprint cars may have, many opt for EVs or hybrid cars. It truly helps make a difference while also allowing ...

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- When you brake on a normal gas-powered vehicle and the brake pads or shoes put pressure on the rotors, the act creates thermal energy, or simply put, heat. It's basically wasted ...

Regenerative braking has been a common thing for EVs ever since the Toyota Prius hit the market some two decades ago. It is a good way to save some of the kinetic energy that would otherwise go to ...

Efficiency, friend. Unlike normal brake discs, which simply convert kinetic energy into heat that’s lost forever, regen braking allows electricity to be harvested from the motor and then recycled back ...

Regenerative braking is one of the neatest features on electric vehicles. By running the motor backwards (in essence), it becomes a generator that puts electricity back into the battery while ...

There are four levels, and the most aggressive one actually mimics an EV’s one-pedal driving fairly closely, albeit without ...

With the rise of electric vehicles, regenerative braking has become a whole lot more common, and many drivers of EVs assume that using maximum regenerative braking settings means they’re getting a ...

General Motors has released a video instructing owners of the Chevy Bolt EV and Bolt EUV on how to get the most out of the compact car’s standard regenerative braking system. Regenerative braking is ...

View post: Porsche Engineers Just Solved a Problem Most Carmakers Didn’t Know Existed The speed of new vehicle development over the past few years has been dizzying as EVs introduce novel charging, ...

When you see a headline like, "My son flunked his road test because he was driving a Tesla, dad says," it's understandable that most people would probably laugh. The kid probably turned on Autopilot ...

As complex as cars are, brake lights are one part that everyone easily understands — you hit the pedal, and the brake lights come on. This alerts drivers behind you that you are slowing down and that ...

There are multiple methods that automakers utilize to make hybrid and battery-electric vehicles (BEVs, more commonly referred to as EVs) as efficient as possible. One is improving their overall ...
