Abstract
A vehicle includes an electric machine, friction brakes, a brake pedal, and a controller. The controller is programmed to, in response to depressing the brake pedal to generate a first command to reduce the speed of the vehicle, reduce the speed of the vehicle (i) via regenerative braking or (ii) via regenerative braking plus friction braking. The controller is further programmed to, in response to (i) releasing the brake pedal subsequent to the first command, (ii) the speed of the vehicle being less than a threshold, and (iii) depressing the brake pedal to generate a second command to reduce the speed of the vehicle subsequent to releasing the brake pedal, reduce the speed of the vehicle via friction braking only.
