700hp of stopping power per wheel isn't regen braking, that's dumping battery power into a stopping force.
What do you think the (-) means? No, braking like this does not use battery power. Read the link. YASA is a Cambridge scientist with a string of papers on axial hub motors, they have a massive resistive force.
This isn't SAE dipshits from Detroit.
It turns the motors into generators, same as any regen braking.
