> the difference between driving one and a Tesla is night and day.

The one thing I absolutely hated about driving a Tesla was regenerative breaking. They should’ve made it optional.

I loved the Ford Mach-e GT.

Consumer Reports had it as the best EV for reliability.

Regen braking is optional. You can change it in the settings at any time while parked

It was optional in pre-2020 models but recent models have removed the option. This is one reason we didn't buy one a couple years ago. (If they've added the option back since then, please let me know!) https://insideevs.com/news/451393/tesla-removes-regenerative...

Its back: https://electrek.co/2023/04/24/tesla-brings-back-regenerativ...

It appears that Chinese regulators forced them to put it back.
