Where is the handbrake located in the Elysion?
2 Answers
The Elysion only has a handbrake in its high-end models, which are equipped with an electronic handbrake located below the air vent on the left side of the driver's seat, making it very convenient to use. For the low-end models, there is no handbrake; instead, a foot brake is used, which is located to the left of the brake pedal. Here is some information about the Elysion: 1. In terms of dimensions, the Dongfeng Honda Elysion measures 4935/1845/1805mm in length, width, and height, with a wheelbase of 2900mm. 2. In terms of power, it is equipped with Honda's Earth Dreams Technology 2.4-liter direct-injection engine, with a maximum power output of 137 kW and a maximum torque of 243 Nm. 3. In terms of the transmission system, the Elysion is paired with the new-generation 'G-design-shift' CVT continuously variable transmission.
When I first drove the Elysion, I was also curious about this. You can find the electronic parking brake on the center console. It's usually a small button with the letter "P" located on the upper part of the center console near the driver's right side, close to the driver's seat. It's quite convenient to operate—just press it lightly while stepping on the brake pedal to activate it. The close placement is designed for quick response to emergencies while driving, avoiding distractions. Actually, many cars now use electronic parking brakes instead of traditional mechanical levers, as they are safer and more reliable, less prone to jamming or being forgotten to release. I’d remind you to regularly check the electronic system’s functionality, like confirming it’s activated by the indicator light after parking to prevent rolling. Driving this kind of MPV is mostly for family trips, so having it well-positioned allows for more focused driving without affecting conversation, making it much safer. Overall, the design is simple and clear, making it hassle-free to use.
