Rising Automotive Theft and Keyless Ignition Systems are Unlocking the Touchless Experience
The increased automotive theft worldwide with thieves getting advanced with their automotive stealing practices are primarily driving the market growth. The National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) reported 500,000 vehicles being stolen in the United States in the first half of 2023. These activities have pushed automotive OEMs to go beyond adding security layers to vehicles. Major automotive brands like BMW, Volkswagen, and Mercedes-Benz are offering attractive and multifunctional smart keys to lure consumers. Even since the addition of keyless ignition in vehicles, smart key technology has only transformed. It involves a touchscreen with smart keys with a long range of functions like ignition control, AC control, door, and trunk unlock and lock etc.
For example, BMW launched its BMW 5 series in June 2023 with intelligent remote fob. The key fob can help the driver remotely move the car from outside in a straight line. Furthermore, OEMs focus on innovation and higher safety, raising consumer preferences and standards. The smart key system is a part of the advanced vehicle ecosystem which delivers premium functions to the vehicle to add user convenience.
Increasing Solution Adoption and Penetrating Connected Car Technology to Fuel Market Growth
OEMs have started adopting smart key technology in their vehicles, which is a driving force for market expansion. Different automotive brands use different terms for their smart key technology. For instance, Audi's' smart key system is called "Advanced Key" while BMW uses the term "Comfort Access". Furthermore, the application of lightweight and nature-friendly elements for chip manufacturing is transforming the automotive component industry. The adoption of smart key systems is not limited to luxury vehicles, but also in volume brands. One of the main growth factors for growing customer demand is first-in-line brand experience, with OEMs now trying to use all available technology to continue to draw in prospects to their brands.
In October 2023, Kia revealed the EV5 and two concept models at Kia EV Day. Kia has enabled these models with Highway Driving Assist 2 (HDA2) which helps drivers maintain a distance from other vehicles and keeps them in a specific lane. The vehicle comes with a Kia Digital Key 2 smart key that helps the user activate the vehicle's Remote Smart Parking Assis 2 (RSPA 2) system. It allows the Kia SUV to park itself without the need for user control.
Government Concerns and Stringent Federal Policy to Support OEM Smart Key Adoption
The government's concern over automotive theft is also pushing automotive companies to adopt the latest theft-preventive measures. Some of these steps involve legalization and regulations, public awareness campaigns, and anti-theft devices such as smart keys and immobilizers. Public awareness campaigns greatly help OEM manufacturers as end users choose vehicles with advanced key features to secure their vehicles. Furthermore, the government takes serious action against the brands that don't follow the policies regarding installing anti-theft systems.
In June 2023, New York City sued South Korean automakers Hyundai and Kia for failing to install anti-theft devices. This New York court accused the companies of enabling the "Spiraling Epidemic". These actions fuel the adoption of smart keys across the automotive OEMs. Smart keys prevent auto theft by using a unique code to unlock the vehicle. Alongside, modern auto keys automatically lock the vehicle once the user parks and leaves the vehicle. The usage of infrared technology makes the lock-unlock process smooth, quick, and reliable.
