I am suspecting there is a big advantage for the extended range battery when towing, hauling heavy loads, or being hard on deceleration. The extended range is able to provide more power, therefore you could probably assume that it will also regenerate more which will put more energy back into the battery instead of using the friction brakes. 25% more power hopefully also transfers to 25% more regen capability.
I personally love the 1 pedal drive feature when I test drove the Mach-e for an example of how their EVs drive. I actually had to keep on the accelerator pedal for longer than I normally do coming up to a red light and it said 100% energy regen.
I saw one article as well of an interview with Jim Farley (Ford CEO) that he said over time with the OTA updates, the lighting could possibly get up to 450miles range!
