      EVs have regenerative breaking, so in theory that should help with brake dust if people aren’t using their brakes as much.

      In reality though, I doubt some people will make use of RB to actually see any benefits (unless it’s configured right in the car), plus tires are still a problem regardless of EV or ICE.

        Pretty sure regenerative braking is on by default for every EV. It allows them to claim higher range/efficiency.

        The difference is in how aggressively to configure it. More aggressively is more efficient but harder to drive smoothly.
