Hmm, it seems it'd be nice to offer a pseudo-regen mode, where the vehicle would offer to use the disc brakes just enough to not "lose that regen feeling" (sorry, read the other thread first) when releasing the teleportation pedal even though the vehicle is not performing regen, so as to maintain a consistent feel.I regularly drive different vehicles. I have occasionally reached for the non-existent regen paddle when driving my camaro with a stick, but in an emergency situation I've never not moved my foot to the brake pedal. Regen will probably never match how fast you can fully stop by stabbing the brake pedal. As long as you maintain that muscle memory, IMO it doesn't matter what you're driving.
I'm actually more thrown off when I drive my wife's Volt because when the battery is nearly full, it doesn't offer any hints on how much total regen you have available. It's also not nearly as powerful as the regen in my Bolt. I often end up overshooting stops and needing to additionally use the brake pedal way more often. The Volt also seems to be able to come to a complete stop occasionally but then creep mode kicks in and I have to quickly jump to the brake pedal.
I was pretty interested in the Taycan until I found out Porsche decided they didn't want a one-pedal driving mode.
