Why Japanese cars do not use electronic handbrake, electronic handbrake true

Here may want to consider a cost problem, the traditional handbrake is nothing more than a steel wire connected to the brake shoe, the car for braking, the cost of almost one or two hundred it, but the electronic handbrake is through the electronic control of the way to realize the parking brake, a lot of and the automatic parking function is integrated into a complex electronic circuits, the cost of at least in the more than 1,000 yuan, a car if in the parking method on the way to save 800 yuan, then 1 million cars to how much money? can save 800 dollars, then 1 million cars to how much money ah?

But is the electronic handbrake any good? Electronic handbrake stability is certainly not as good as the mechanical handbrake, and maintenance costs will be higher than the mechanical handbrake, but out of safety, electronic handbrake is still strong with the traditional mechanical handbrake, but the safety of the whole car is not the difference with the handbrake way? Therefore, why Japanese cars rarely use electronic handbrake, its main reason is still cost savings, however, the safety of the car to other positions, such as high-tech energy absorption, lightweight body, etc., coupled with the engine quality and reliability, low fuel consumption, is the biggest highlight of the Japanese car.
