Abstract: Performance electric parking brake controllers determine braking control signals for a performance electric parking brake system based on a position of a parking brake lever. A parking brake lever has a first rate of resistance associated with movement in a first direction away from a neutral position and a second rate of resistance associated with movement in a second direction away from the neutral position opposite the first direction. The first and second rates of resistance are different. A controller is configured to electromechanically actuate rear brake calipers of the vehicle in response to a first set of operating conditions of the vehicle, to hydraulically actuate front brake calipers and the rear brake calipers of the vehicle in response to a second set of operating conditions of the vehicle, and to hydraulically actuate only the rear brake calipers in response to a third set of operating conditions of the vehicle.

Abstract: Performance electric parking brake controllers determine braking control signals for a performance electric parking brake system of a vehicle based on differing sets of operating conditions of the vehicle. A controller is configured to electromechanically actuate rear brake calipers of the vehicle in response to a first set of operating conditions of the vehicle, to hydraulically actuate front brake calipers and the rear brake calipers of the vehicle in response to a second set of operating conditions of the vehicle, and to hydraulically actuate only the rear brake calipers in response to a third set of operating conditions of the vehicle.

Abstract: A computer includes a processor and a memory, and the memory stores instructions executable by the processor to, in response to one of a vehicle feature of a vehicle being active or the vehicle being in a preset geographic area, control acceleration and braking of the vehicle based on input from an input device of the vehicle according to a low-speed mode; and in response to the low-speed mode being inactive, control acceleration and braking of the vehicle not according to the low-speed mode. In the low-speed mode, acceleration occurs upon receiving input from the input device. In the low-speed mode, braking occurs upon not receiving input from the input device.
