On both my Volvo PHEVs I often look at the brake discs and find them rusty from the amount of regen braking. it almost completely eliminates conventional braking unless it's for collision avoidance. | ||||||||

My EV turns regenerative braking off for the first use of brakes after beginning a journey, to avoid the rusting disc syndrome. | ||||||||

So your primary and emergency brake system elements are rusty and that is now somehow a good thing? |
