Standards Agreed For Smartphone Car Keys

2018 Honda Accord - Price, Reviews, Specs & News - Motor Trend
Smartphones could soon be used to unlock and start cars, after a consortium of car makers and tech companies agreed a new set of standards for smartphone car keys. Tesla owners can already use a dedicated app instead of a key to access and start the Model S, Model X and Model 3, but the CCC’s new set of protocols will create an industry-first “standardisation solution”. The 1.0 specification has generated “extensive interest from automotive and smartphone manufacturers”, resulting in work beginning on the “Digital Key Release 2.0 specification”. This second iteration is under development by all of the parties responsible for the first specification, plus Audi, General Motors, and a number of other companies. An spokesperson from Volkswagen said the company “has supported and contributed to Digital Key Standardization activity of CCC from the first day”. Audi said the CCC protocols will “lay the building blocks for innovative services”, while BMW said it would deliver “a superior user experience” to customers.

Volkswagon Touareg from an owners perspective. The Volkswagon Touareg provides a great combination of the sport and luxury feel into one. The seats are very comfortable but don't quite hold you like a sports car. The car is equipped with great, easy to use features including navigation and Bluetooth. The Touareg has great maneuverability along with great visibility allowing the driving to navigate the roads with confidence. The backseats have decent leg room along with good head room and will comfortably fit two. With three backseat passengers, the back can be a little snug with a lack of leg room and arm room for the middle passenger. The trunk has a sufficient amount of space able to contain what the driver needs. A good example would be that it can fit multiple bags of golf clubs. The driving experience is very tight and sporty. The Touareg provides the driver with both comfort and a sporty feel, allowing for a combination of usability and fun for the driver. In the end, the Volkswagon Touareg is a great vehicle providing the driver with all their everyday needs and a dose of fun.
