Regen level seems to be a very variable thing between cars; you're experiencing what MINI E drivers expect as the norm; the difference is that you don't expect it. In the MINI E the regen is a constant, max regen, whereas the Roadster regen normally fades as you slow, the MINI remains constant so the braking force increases as you slow. Lift off at 65mph and the regen is firm but as you slow down it gets stronger and stronger peaking at about 40mph and staying strong right down to about 7mph where is eases off and finally disengages completely at about 1mph.
It's no wonder people have such different views on regen; they're all different.
