Has Tesla Canceled the One-Pedal Driving?

Tesla has not canceled the one-pedal driving. One-Pedal Operation: One-pedal operation significantly reduces the frequency of moving the right foot back and forth. In daily driving, mechanical brakes are rarely needed except for emergency deceleration or complete stops. Tesla Introduction: Tesla is an American electric vehicle and energy company that manufactures and sells electric cars, solar panels, and energy storage products. Headquartered in Palo Alto, it was founded on July 1, 2003, by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning. The founders named the company "Tesla Motors" in honor of the physicist Nikola Tesla.
I've been driving a Tesla Model 3 for several years, and the one-pedal driving mode hasn't been removed at all—it's still fully functional. When driving normally, pressing the accelerator speeds up the car, and releasing it automatically slows down and brings the car to a stop, making it effortless and convenient. Although some users complain about not being used to it or mention that newer software versions offer options to adjust regenerative braking intensity or even switch to creep mode, the core feature remains intact. I find this mode incredibly practical, especially in traffic jams—no need to constantly switch between the brake and accelerator pedals, making driving much more relaxed. Additionally, it helps recover energy to extend range, and over time, it reduces battery wear, which is one of the advantages of electric vehicles. I remember feeling a bit unfamiliar with it when I first bought the car, but after a few days of use, I couldn't imagine driving without it. I recommend practicing and getting used to it while driving.
