    No kidding. Re-read the quote to which part of his statement that I am referencing. How else do I paint this for you in order to comprehend?

    Two separate things are being addressed. A handful are talking about the different features offered up by the Model 3 that the OP mentioned; creep, roll, hold.

    Myself and a couple others are talking about the OP’s part of his statement that if he lets go of the brake pedal the car moves. Our posts are in regard to this, and only this. Our cars will hold (H) after releasing the brake. We know it’s not the same as the Model 3.

    I have yet to receive my MS, however I had one for a test drive. There were several times it came out of FSD and because of regenerative breaking immediately slowed down almost to a stop before I pressed on the gas. People in back of me almost slammed into me. It's really a shame you cannot turn off the regenerative breaking as needed. Can be dangerous.

    You just need to take 10 seconds and learn how to drive the car. It’s not hard, but it is different.

    You can set the regenerative braking to 'Low' in the settings, but not turn it off.

    The car will turn on the brake lights when aggressively regenerative braking.

    If only my car would not roll back even on a slight hill while still in D...

    I was not aware the 3 (and presumably the Y) had this feature: Creep/Roll/Hold. Will be nice to have in the ‘21 Refresh S’s. I do appreciate the brake hold we have now.

    As mentioned earlier, ALL Model S and Model X (Ravens) built from May 2019 onwards have the Creep/Roll/Hold setting, as they all have the Permanent Magnet Motor from the 3/Y on the front.

    You actually cannot change regenerate braking anymore. At least on the 2020 MS. I even asked the sales associate.

    when I test drove the 2021 S in December the SA spoke to me about the regen braking. We decided to change it to low and that is how I test drove it. No reason to think it will no longer be available unless you have some inside info
