Manuals are still prevalent here in Brazil, but locak versions of the Corolla don't even have this option anymore.

The only type of parking brake that works effectively as an emergency brake are the lever-operated ones. But anyway, in a car with automatic transmission I'd still rather get a pedal-operated parking brake instead of an electric one. But anyway, since I'm not so comfortable doing heel-and-toe to start uphill driving, that's the only time a pedal-operated parking brake becomes a PITA and makes me prefer a lever-operated parking brake that I can use for that.
