How does the regenerative braking system work in the Audi e-Tron?

I'm interested in purchasing the Audi e-Tron and have heard about its regenerative braking system. Can you explain how it works and how it differs from traditional braking systems?

Hi Samantha, the regenerative braking system in the Audi e-Tron captures energy that is typically lost during braking and stores it in the battery. This not only helps to improve the overall efficiency of the vehicle, but also helps to extend its range. The system works by using the electric motor as a generator to convert the vehicle's kinetic energy into electrical energy, which is then stored in the battery.
