Activate Some Mechanical Braking in Low Regen

13

Now Implemented!

Description

When regen braking is limited due to battery level or temperature, add limited mechanical brakes to supplement the regen braking.

Competitive/Pricing/Notes

This would result in a consistent driving experience regardless of the state of the battery. In addition, this could be used to provide a hold stopping mode for older vehicles that can’t fully stop with regen braking.

A downside is that it's also icy when it's cold... so it might actually be a good idea to get drivers accustomed to limited breaking ability.  This way they habitually start breaking earlier.
