Seriously doubt there will be either a foot or hand parking brake. Most likely automatic electronic. I do hope there is some sort of hill-start assist in the MT though, that's an easy thing to do.

In the part of the country I live in the "minidrum" parking brake was an absolute fail. Vehicles only a few years old had non functional parking brakes...tbh they never really worked from the factory. When the rotors were removed for the 1st brake job the "rust ridge" built up on the inboard edge of the "drum surface" inside the rotor meant that the rotor couldn't be removed without more or less destroying the parking brake, shoes, hardware, backing plates even. Complete JUNK...and all manufacturers had them. I for one am 1000% happy to see them go! The early electric ones were garbage too, but it seems now they have started to figure it out. I might just live long enough to see 10 year old vehicles in Wisconsin w/a functional parking brake! What a time to be alive?!?the foot pedal parking brake or lever. Electronic brakes require you to put the vehicle into "service mode" when performing rear brake pad and rotor replacement work. This is an additional step that needs looking up and following the instructions. right before electronic park brakes came out.... the brake cable actuated some shoes set up within the rotor which was a disc/drum combo (the brake pads and caliper were seperate and resetting the caliper to load the new pads in was a cinch!. just my 2 cents. as for how they perform, any type is fine.
