I have searched this site and others to get a better understanding of regenerative braking. The best I have been able to find is the attached diagram from Toyota showing the improvement for 2004, but I would like to know how efficient the system is, how much of the kinetic energy it re-captures, and how much braking is done by the generator/motor vs the brake pads. Does anyone know?
