Handbrake or Electronic Parking Brake: Which is Better?
1 Answers
Both electronic parking brakes and handbrakes have their own advantages. The specific differences between the two are as follows: 1. Space occupation: Handbrakes take up more space; electronic parking brakes are aesthetically pleasing, convenient, and space-saving. 2. Functionality: Handbrakes can be used for drifting maneuvers; electronic parking brakes cannot perform drifting. 3. Control system: Handbrakes are not affected by the battery; electronic parking brakes may malfunction or encounter issues when the battery fails. Below is an introduction to electronic parking brakes: Electronic parking brakes use electronic control to achieve parking braking. Their working principle is the same as mechanical handbrakes, both of which tighten the rear wheel brake shoes through cables for braking.
