Abstract
A utility vehicle with regenerative braking is disclosed. The utility vehicle includes a system power bus, a battery coupled to the system power bus, at least one electric drive motor configured to generate power through the regenerative braking and supply the power onto the system power bus, and a first controller configured to decrease a maximum travel speed to reduce an amount of the power generated through the regenerative braking when the battery is fully charged and the power is greater than a power consumption limit.
