How to Use the Electronic Parking Brake on the Honda Vezel?
2 Answers
To use the electronic parking brake on the Honda Vezel, simply lift or press the toggle switch. The Honda Vezel is a compact SUV. Taking the 2020 Honda Vezel as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4328 mm, width 1772 mm, height 1605 mm, with a wheelbase of 2610 mm. The 2020 Honda Vezel is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 96kW and a maximum torque of 155Nm, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission. The front suspension uses a MacPherson strut independent suspension, while the rear suspension employs a torsion beam rear suspension.
When I first got my Honda Vezel, I was a bit nervous about operating the electronic parking brake, having been used to traditional lever types. After parking, I simply press the 'P' button on the center console to activate it – that button is located to the right of the steering wheel, very prominently positioned. Releasing it requires more attention: you need to firmly press the brake pedal, then gently push the button downward, and the car is ready to start. I found that after trying a few times, it became quite intuitive – no need to press hard, just a light tap with your finger will do. The first time I made a mistake by not pressing the brake, the car wouldn't move at all. Looking back now, I've learned that safety comes first. The advantage of the electronic parking brake is that it's quiet and prevents rollaway, especially when parking on slopes – it holds very securely. In daily use, I also check the dashboard indicator light to ensure it's working properly. Overall, it's simpler than I imagined.
