Is coasting to a stop more efficient than regen to a stop?

It's more energy efficient to regen to a stop because you're adding energy back into the battery. Coasting, if you can do it, doesn't add energy back.
You will NEVER regen 100% of what you consume. Can't happen. 'cause Physics.
Coast using 0kW >> Regen'ing anything.

So this statement....127% perfectly incorrect.
