I was doing some tests and I found that with the HCH1 the regen only occurs when the engine is on and in drive. IF the engine is on it will find the correct gear for that speed. So basically putting it in neutral is good unless you are going slow enough for the car to realize that it was going slow to put it in neutral.

Does that make sense?
