They want to be the first automaker to get rid of physical keys and remote keys altogether as early as next year. To do this, the company would offer new-vehicle access to their cars through a smartphone application and Bluetooth wireless technology which would also have the capacity to open the trunk and start the car remotely.<\/p>\n<p>Utilizing an app to open one&#8217;s auto is not exactly new to the auto industry but other automakers besides Volvo only utilize it as a secondary form of entry, not a primary form of access. There are many car owners who don\u2019t like change so Volvo says it will keep on offering a physical key to clients who still prefer that method.<\/p>\n<p>There are even more advantages to this new technology including the ability to share your digital keys using this smartphone app with family members, co-workers or other people you choose to share with.\u00a0\u201cOur innovative digital key technology has the potential to completely change how a Volvo can be accessed and shared. Instead of sitting idle in a parking lot the entire day, cars could be used more often and efficiently by whomever the owner wishes,\u201d says Henrik Green, Volvo Cars\u2019 vice president product strategy &amp; vehicle line management.<\/p>\n<p>Volvo is currently conducting a test program this spring and the new technology will be officially revealed one week from now at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. The automaker says a limited number of their cars will be outfitted with computerized keys in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, this new innovation will not be able to help people who habitually lose their smartphone. However, the new technology will surely make losing keys a thing of the past for all of the <a href=\"https:\/\/thriftyautoship.com\/options\/\">car shipping<\/a> companies. Just think, there will no physical keys to keep up with or to maintain. To use the new technology, why not buy a new Volvo and have <a href=\"https:\/\/thriftyautoship.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Thrifty Auto Shipping<\/a> handle the delivery?
