Is the electronic handbrake easy to use? Why are other cars in use, but Japanese cars are hardly used?

In recent years, various configurations of cars produced by major automobile brands are also quite a lot , Whether it's a high-end car , Or low-end models , Various configurations are available . Especially for many female drivers , Mechanical handbrake that can't be pulled , There are also obvious improvements . Compared with the traditional mechanical handbrake , Electronic handbrake can be said to be very easy to use . You can see from the shape , The advantage of electronic handbrake is not small , It takes up little space , It's easy to operate , Just press it gently .

relatively speaking , Mechanical handbrake is too complicated , For female drivers with less power , Sometimes you can't easily put down the mechanical handbrake . Now many car brands have begun to use electronic handbrake . Because no matter from the appearance , From the perspective of use , Electronic handbrake is obviously easier to use than traditional mechanical handbrake . Even if TV is like this , Other cars are in use , Only Japanese cars hardly use electronic handbrake , Still using the mechanical handbrake , Especially Toyota and Nissan , It is rarely used .

In terms of cost , Electronic handbrake is actually a progress of mechanical handbrake , The requirements for various technologies are higher , This means that the cost of electronic handbrake is much higher than that of mechanical handbrake . Because the internal structure of the mechanical handbrake is still very simple , But electronic handbrake because of various electronic components , So the internal structure is very complex , The relative price will also be too low . It is also one of the reasons why Japanese cars rarely use electronic handbrake . For car companies , Although the cost of an electronic handbrake will not be particularly high , But the electronic handbrake required by all vehicles is added together , It won't be very cheap .

And for car companies , It's better to spend money on the blade to make more profits . Relative to other cars , The configuration of Japanese cars is relatively simple , Many accessories are not essential, they are not available . in addition , Although the electronic handbrake looks very easy to use , But its safety is actually not as good as that of mechanical handbrake . Because the electronic handbrake needs to be controlled by electronic components , Therefore, it can't compare with the mechanical hand brake in stability . Some car owners will worry , In case of driving , The electronic handbrake doesn't work , Or it can't be loosened. What should I do ？

And because the structure of the electronic handbrake is more precise , It's certainly not cheap in terms of maintenance fees . And because the operation of the electronic handbrake is too simple , Some car owners will worry , What if you suddenly encounter the electronic handbrake while driving ？ In fact, all kinds of auto parts are becoming more and more scientific and technological , Of course, there are many problems . But as people use , These shortcomings will still be improved .
