I feel like i have to tap very hard to stop the ct.

Does anyone feel the same when trying to slow down the ct?

What brake does the CT use? does anyone know?

I too have felt that the CT takes slightly more effort than my Audi when braking. I'm thinking the car is just more heavy and not really designed for sudden stops and track events.

Has any one have any problems braking while hitting some sort of bump? I feel like it stops braking and I have to slam on the really hard brakes for it to stop. I know it sounds really weird but thats the best way I could describe it.

Exact same feeling for me too!!
It kind of feels like it is lunging forward because of the lack of braking.

I always think about searching about this but always forget.

SBCsx

Yeah. I wonder if pruis' have the same problem.

Hey, I felt the exactly the same thing sometimes, suddenly feels like you are not tapping on the paddle even you actually do!!! you have to tap it really hard in order to stop the car at that moment.

Thats so weird.!!!!

If you experience the feeling of your brakes going away when you hit a bump it is probably the momentary engagement of the ABS. When the ABS system kicks in it definitely changes the feel of the brakes. They are not failing you are just feeling the change in the system.

The brake system is the source for the regenerative charging of the battery. The first portion of brake pedal travel is engaging the charging system. You have to "push through" the charging system to really engage the brakes. Again, this is a different feel from a non hybrid vehicle. Hopefully you will get used to it.
