Claim 12:
13. A method for scheduling regenerative braking torque, comprising:
sensing a position of an accelerator pedal;
generating a torque request value in response to the sensed accelerator pedal position;
determining a speed of operation of a motor/generator;
determining a torque limit in response to the torque request value and the determined speed of operation of the motor/generator;
generating a regenerative braking command in response to the torque limit;
outputting the regenerative braking command to the motor/generator;
modifying the torque limit in response to a state of a brake pedal, the modifying comprising increasing the torque limit in response to the state being a released state; and
modulating the regenerative braking torque in response to modifying the torque limit.
