Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that electric cars recover some energy while driving through regenerative braking?

Yes. A reference article defines regenerative braking as an energy recovery mechanism that converts a moving vehicle's kinetic energy into stored or immediately used power, and several peer-reviewed studies on electric vehicles likewise describe regenerative braking systems recovering kinetic energy during braking.
