Any small cars with electric parking brakes?
Are there any small cars with an automatic hand brake. I'm looking for a car for my 80 year old mother and she finds pulling the handbrake difficult.
Our answer:
HI Francis,
Generally speaking you will find it hard to find an electronic parking brake on anything smaller than, for instance, a Volkswagen Golf, Peugeot 308, or Ford Focus. As ever with smaller cars, it will only be the most expensive possible model that will come with such technology, so you’re probably better off buying the slightly larger car anyway.
