I have noticed now, the stock suspension must be rubbish, coming to a stop at the lights, the weight shifts back front a fair amount. Much like an old wagon or kingswood. Test it next time your out.
 
Its not dependant on regen. Its the final stop.
Ok, I haven't really noticed anything out of the ordinary, but maybe I'm just used to how the car feels. My usual driving style is cruising to a stop at lights. If I brake more aggressively than usual the car does lurch forward but I think that's physics and a heavier car? When I first got the car the suspension did feel firmer than what I was used to, but I think that's how they tuned it with the choice of the firmer sway bars. There's a guy on FB that has changed to a 24mm front sway bar (usually 30mm) and has reported a softer ride and less understeer.

Also...Brick got suspended?! 🤔

Yeah I just saw that...
 
Not noticed any difference to other cars myself. Of course it will depend on how we drive as individuals and the cars we have driven.
