The method to use the Envision's parking brake is: 1. Press the electronic parking brake to stop braking; 2. Lift the electronic parking brake to start braking. The Envision is a medium-sized 5-door, 5-seat SUV with body dimensions of: length 4686mm, width 1839mm, height 1691mm, and a wheelbase of 2750mm, with a fuel tank capacity of 66 liters. The Envision is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine and a 9-speed automatic manual transmission, delivering a maximum power of 191 kilowatts and a maximum torque of 400 Newton meters. It features a front-engine, four-wheel-drive layout, with a front suspension using MacPherson independent suspension and a rear suspension employing a multi-link independent suspension.

I've been driving the Envision for so long, and the handbrake operation is actually quite simple. It's not like those old lever-type cars where you have to pull the handle hard. The Envision uses an electronic button, located near the center console or dashboard, marked with a "P" or a small brake icon. When parking, for example, when you're getting out of the car or waiting at a red light, first bring the car to a complete stop, press the brake pedal, and then gently press the handbrake button—it will click and lock the rear wheels to prevent rolling. Before driving, it's the same: sit down, fasten your seatbelt, press the brake pedal, shift to D or R gear, and the handbrake will automatically release or you can manually hold the release button to disengage it. I really like this design—it's effortless and safe, especially when parking on hills, as there's no fear of rolling back. Remember to regularly check if the button is stuck or dirty to avoid malfunctioning at critical moments.

As a seasoned driver with years of experience, I believe the most crucial aspect of using the Envision's parking brake is safety. Its electronic button is quite user-friendly—just press it after parking to lock the wheels. However, you must never be careless. For instance, when parking on steep slopes, I always ensure the button is firmly pressed, listening for the sound or checking that the dashboard light is on before feeling at ease, as rolling downhill can be extremely dangerous. Before driving, always press the brake pedal first, then shift gears and release the parking brake (either automatically or manually). I also recommend developing the habit of not relying on neutral gear for temporary stops; instead, directly engage the parking brake for added security. This system responds quickly, offers high reliability, and requires minimal maintenance—virtually no repairs needed.

When I first learned to drive, I found car buttons a bit complicated, but the Envision's parking brake was easy to get used to. After parking, just look for the button with a P symbol near the dashboard and press it to lock the car. When starting the car, sit down, press the brake, shift to D gear, and the car will automatically release the parking brake or you can press the button to release it. Beginners don’t need to worry about making mistakes—just operate with the brake pressed; the system is smart and errors are rare. This way, daily driving is hassle-free, and safety is the top priority—don’t get distracted. Operating the buttons is very simple.
