In future... all that will be necessary to engage or release the parking brake will be a brief push of a switch on the dash panel or a multifunction steering wheel. This is now made possible by either a powerful electric motor behind the scenes that tensions or releases the brake cables on command, or a further electric servomotor on the rear wheel which presses the brake caliper directly onto the brake disc.
