Now you see, im old at 45yrs and although an IT geek and a gadget man the digital key should be my thing but the digital key just seems like an extra level of faff to go through just for the sake of the technology.

With the key, i get close, it unlocks, I slide in and start the car. I have options should i need them curtesy of the buttons on the fob and dont need to get my phone out or swipe a card anywhere to interact with my car.

Im never keen on technology if it feels like its creates more faff than older tried and tested methods simply for the 'cool' affect.

Touchscreens in cars are another example but i'll shutup now as ive said enough
Yes, current implementation isn't great. For me, it's still worth it to not have to carry my key around and inadvertently open my trunk and/or windows.
