In cars, the parking brake, also called hand brake, emergency brake, or e-brake, is a latching brake usually used to keep the vehicle stationary. It is sometimes also used to prevent a vehicle from rolling when the operator needs both feet to operate the clutch and throttle pedals.
So there you have it, it's a Parking brake. The Parking brake actuates the rear wheel brakes, whether front or rear drive. I have never seen car with a parking brake that actuated the front brakes. Possibly a few may have had a parking brake as part of the transmission. On a car with rear drum brakes, FWD, AWD, 4WD all use the rear brakes for parking brake. There are some cars, older Saabs for one that the parking brake works the front disk brake. A Toyota Camry Hybrid could be a whole other animal. There are lots of unique aspects of the braking systems for a hybrid. My guess is it works the rear wheels.
