Does the Car Electronic Parking Brake Release Automatically?

[Diana]

Car electronic parking brakes can release automatically. Models equipped with electronic parking brakes will automatically engage the brake when the vehicle is parked, the engine is turned off, and the seatbelt is unfastened. When the driver gets back into the car, fastens the seatbelt, and closes the door, the electronic parking brake will automatically disengage upon pressing the accelerator pedal. If the electronic parking brake is accidentally pulled while driving at high speed, it will not respond immediately; instead, it will only take effect when the vehicle speed approaches a stop. The electronic parking brake, also known as the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) system, integrates the temporary braking function during driving with the long-term braking function after parking, and achieves parking braking through electronic control. Its benefits include saving the space occupied by a mechanical handbrake and creating a larger central console area.
