E

The regenerative braking system in a BMW i5 captures the kinetic energy that is normally lost when braking and converts it into electrical energy to be stored in the battery. This energy can then be used to power the vehicle's electric motor, increasing its overall efficiency.

A

In simple terms, the regenerative braking system uses the principle of electromagnetic induction to generate electricity when the brakes are applied. This energy is then fed back into the battery, reducing the reliance on traditional fossil fuel sources.

O

Compared to traditional braking systems, regenerative braking in the BMW i5 is smoother and more responsive. It also helps to reduce wear on the brake pads and extends their lifespan.
