Brake lights during regen in low?

[user 3729]

Do the FFE brake lights come on during heavy regen, such as in low "gear"?

No, not that I can see.

If you drive at night, you can see when your brake lights come on by reflections on street signs behind you.

ICE cars don't show brake lights when in Low Gear and using the engine to slow a car going down hill so I wouldn't expect the EV car to show brake lights either when in Low.

Of course if you step on the brake and are in Regen mode the brake lights will come on.

Some EV's with strong regen do light up the brake lights. Tesla does.
