This brake comprises a housing (1) intended to be mounted preferably close to the rear crossmember of the vehicle and which contains a gearwheel (2), a nut (3) fastened axially through the wheel, able to move in translation on either side thereof, and profiled so that it can be driven in rotation by the wheel, cables (8,9) connected to the braking members passing through the housing on each side of the nut and connected to the latter so that the rotation of the nut in one direction or the other gives rise to the application or release of the braking members; an electric motor (16) for driving the wheel in rotation is connected to a control button (17) which can be actuated from the driving position of the vehicle. This brake allows a gain in storage space and habitability of the vehicle, eliminates the need for adjustments upon assembly or during the life of the vehicle, guarantees a balanced distribution of the brake-application force between the two members and reduces the length of the cables.
