I, for one, definitely won't be buying another Tesla as long as Naziboy Musk has anything to do with the company.

That's all EVs nowadays.

They all have regen so you barely ever brake in any of them.

Many of them also come to a complete stop without touching the brake as well. That's not a Tesla only thing.

Edit: Oh also on a Tesla you used to be able to enable "creep" mode so it behaved like an ICE and wouldn't come to a complete stop. The EPA changed the rules though and made it so you have to advertise the combined or lowest mileage though (can't recall) of all features, and creep lowers mileage by a few miles due to not 100% regen, so Tesla nix'd the feature to not reduce their EPA range. New cars no longer have the feature, old cars still have it.
