A system for determining thickness of a brake pad includes a controller configured to provide a total braking energy of a vehicle with a regenerative energy braking system, and a rotor braking system that includes a plurality of brake pads. The system controller determines the work done by the brake pads as a combination of front brake pad work and rear brake pad work, then accumulates the brake pad wear to provide an estimation of the brake pad thickness using the front brake pad work and the rear brake pad work. The controller outputs a message indicative of the estimation of the brake pad thickness via an output system in communication with the controller
