I was shocked to learn Tesla has zero regen with brake pedal use, which basically forces use of 1-pedal mode to recapture as much of that kinetic energy as possible when slowing.
When the car is in D, there is integrated regen on the brake pedal. There is also a paddle on the left back of the steering wheel. You just have to look at the dash to while braking to confirm this.
