The relations between Electric Vehicle (EV) drive arrangement and efficiency of regenerative braking were discussed. Firstly, conclusions were concluded according to the analyses of theoretical models. And then the validity of conclusions was proved by the simulations basing on the software of MATLAB/SIMULINK. The results indicate that the EV with four-wheel drive (4WD) pattern has the highest efficiency in regenerative braking mode. It also shows that whether the EV with front-wheel drive (FWD) pattern has higher efficiency than the EV with rear-wheel drive (RWD) pattern in regenerative braking mode depends on the braking force distribution coefficient.
