Is this another one of these doofy engineering solutions.... S80 2008

to a problem that almost no one previously considered a problem? Pull up on handle, brake applies. Push button, brake released.

This is somewhat like the expensive and hard-riding run-flat tires that come on all new BMWs. Only a few people, usually in the security business or military, asked for run-flats in the past, but now we're all stuck with them. Another doofy idea in new BMWs: electronic monitoring of engine oil level. No dipstick provided any more.
