For me the electronic parking brake is a deal breaker. I will not buy a car with one, so my CX-3 will be my last.
same with me ,I had an Astra roll back and get damaged previously and will not purchase with electronic brake again
"Electronic handbrakes hold more firmly than regular cable-operated brakes, and because there is (usually) no physical cable which can stretch over time, there’s less adjustment needed – so you’re much less likely to find your car scooting backwards off your sloped driveway in the night."

If you don't like the electronic handbrake but really want a car that has one and don't trust it, simply leave the car in gear when you park up and leave the car.

Turning the steering wheel so it points to the the kerb if facing downhill, or away from the kerb if facing uphill, is an added safety measure. Using Park in an auto transmission is a further measure.

As per the Highway code but some of us will not have read it in a while.

You can keep the electric brake, it probably just speeds up assembly, cuts costs and gives the service mechanics one less thing to do, i.e., adjust the cable, with no commensurate reduction in service cost!!
