OK, good to know. So maybe run that generator-like source for a little longer.
Do BEVs still use the car’s momentum or braking to recharge the batteries like a lot of hybrids used to or still do? I know it won’t amount to much but I’m sure it helps.
ICE vehicles are stupid. You buy a set amount of energy from a price fixing cartel, then waste 75% of it as heat through the radiator and brakes, we literally just throw away the energy. Because it’s cheap.

BEVs regenerate and it does amount to a lot.

Yes they do. Often to a greater extent too via 1-pedal mode available in many BEVs. Claims are as high as 30% more range (seems a bit far fetched).
