What Are Smart Car Keys?

Smart car keys, also known as proximity keys or intelligent keys, are advanced electronic devices that communicate wirelessly with your vehicle. Unlike traditional keys, smart keys allow you to unlock, start, and operate your car without physically inserting a key. These sophisticated systems use radio frequency identification (RFID) or low-frequency signals to authenticate the key when it’s near the vehicle.

Modern smart keys often include features like push-button start, automatic door unlocking when you approach the vehicle, trunk release, and even remote start capabilities. Many luxury vehicles and newer models come standard with smart key systems, making professional replacement and programming services essential when these keys are lost or damaged.
