EV Range Calculation

Hi all,

I've been doing some research and there's one thing I haven't been able to find anywhere.  In EPA range estimates, is regenerative braking used?  Like does the range estimate go for the amount of energy held in a fully charged battery, or does it account for energy regained through the regen process?

I'm not sure what you're after, regenerative braking more or less cancels itself out, if you go down a hill and gain charge, you lose it again when you go back up the hill home.
