When I first got the 1st gen Volt 6mon ago I read it was better to use L. I liked the 1 foot braking although difficult at first to modulate.
I have lately been using D with the same procedures for coasting as L ( lift just enough to see 0 Kw on the center meter ). Then using my foot to determine when to and how much regen brake to apply. So far-It seams better to use D on my commutes.
However I have not done an actual back to back tests.
Gliding is a lot easier in D than trying to find that prefect foot position in L.
I guest I would best equate Driving in L and slowing down economically to; Driving in sport mode and carefully acelerating more economically than someone in Normal. It requires more effort
Hope that came across.
