How does the regenerative braking system work?

I've heard that the Audi e-Tron has a regenerative braking system. Can you explain how it works and how it differs from traditional braking systems?

The regenerative braking system in the Audi e-Tron uses the kinetic energy from braking to charge the battery, improving overall efficiency and increasing range. It works by rotating the electric motor in reverse, converting the kinetic energy into electrical energy.

Compared to traditional braking systems, regenerative braking in the Audi e-Tron is smoother and more responsive. The system also allows for one-pedal driving, where you can accelerate and decelerate using just the accelerator pedal.
