If the drive motor / braking motor isn't rotating, it's not inducing any current, so there is no regeneration happening. Whatever system is holding your car (someone's car) stopped on a hill, it is not 'regen'. Period. Full stop. No argument possible. To believe otherwise is to believe in free energy.
I am about 99% sure your idea of "magnets" holding a car stopped on a hill is based on some kind of misunderstanding, but I'm not an electrical engineer. If you've read something that explains this, and you can link to it, I'll look at it.
