Is the Electronic Parking Brake Effective After the Engine is Turned Off?

[AidenFitz]

Electronic parking brake remains effective after the engine is turned off. The electronic parking brake is a technology that achieves parking braking through electronic control. Its working principle is the same as that of a mechanical handbrake, both relying on the friction generated between the brake disc and the brake pads to control parking braking. The only difference is that the control method has changed from the previous mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button. The electronic parking brake, also known as the electronic parking brake system, integrates the temporary braking function during driving with the long-term braking function after parking, and achieves parking braking through electronic control. Its advantages include saving the space occupied by the mechanical handbrake and creating a larger center console space.
