Kirk, guess I stand corrected and didn't read it close enough. Thanks.
But an EV can generate power back to the battery by coasting. I own a 2019 Chevy Bolt EV. When I coast... no brake, no foot on the "gas" peddle, I generated power back to my EV battery.
99% of the time I never use my brake peddle. I have a "paddle" on the steering wheel that is a regenerative brake. When I come to a stop sign/ red light I use this "paddle" to come to a complete stop.
When I am in the mountains and going downhill, I use ther "paddle" to slow me down and that generates power back. There is a 60 mile road I frequently drive. 20/30 times a year. I actually able to drive it for FREE. Simplified... I go up the mountain using energy from the battery and then coast down the other side using the "paddle", generating power back into the battery. Net result is almost ZERO ENERGY every time when I pull into my driveway.
