A series wound motor cannot effectively do regen unless they have variable brush timing, because the brushes are generally timed properly for one direction and don't work well in the opposite direction, which is what regen is effectively doing.
Sepex motors are great at regen braking, but large enough ones (especially for a direct drive EV) are not available. 72V seems to be the limit, both in available motors and sepex controllers.
