Trying to know one-pedal driving

One-pedal driving essentially uses the electric motor to slow the car down and regenerate energy back into the battery when you lift off the accelerator. Instead of using the brake pedal to slow down in most situations, you just ease up on the gas, and the car's regenerative braking handles the deceleration, but it's not like freewheeling. You'll still need the brake pedal for hard stops or emergencies, but for most day-to-day driving, it's all about modulating that one pedal. It can take a little getting used to but once you do, it's incredibly smooth and efficient!
 
Also, one-pedal driving helps your brakes last longer since you won't use them as much. The car's system slows you down most of the time, so your brake pads don't wear out as fast as they would in a regular car. You also start getting better at predicting traffic and slowing down earlier, making you a smoother driver.
