I recently purchased my first electric vehicle and am very pleased with it. Just one observation after a 5-hour drive when I got it, I noticed that the brakes could be improved. I found that its stopping power could not handle the vehicle because of its weight. Are there any aftermarket brake upgrades available for this one?
 
After digging into it, it's clear that the brakes might not be the culprit here; it's likely the vehicle's weight that's causing the issue. My recommendation? Start by upgrading the tires. Opting for a set of Michelin Pilot Sport tires could be a game-changer, offering better performance and handling

In the end, it's all up to you. But why bother with an upgrade? The stock brakes are already particularly impressive, delivering exceptional stopping power for a vehicle weighing over 4000 lbs. They far exceed the needs of most everyday drivers. They work flawlessly, leaving you wondering why anyone would change a system that was thoroughly developed by professionals.

When I got my EV newly, I went for a long drive and after it I noticed the brakes felt a bit soft too. I did some digging and found some aftermarket upgrades that really helped improve the stopping power. It made a huge difference. You might want to check out options from brands like EBC or Brembo; they usually have solid upgrades for electric cars.
