One pedal driving

One-pedal driving has been available since Tesla software update 2019.36.1. This update also introduced a new stopping mode selection along with ‘creep’ and ‘roll’ (previously creep off), called ‘hold’. In hold mode, the car applies regenerative braking all the way to zero and then applies ‘Vehicle Hold’ when the car comes to a complete stop.

One-pedal driving is only available in Tesla cars with the newer permanent magnet synchronous reluctance motors, that means Model 3, and Raven Model S and Model X.
