Remote key fob

A remote can control functions such as lock and unlock while a separate blade or transponder key handles other vehicle functions.

Remote-head key

Some vehicles combine the physical key blade, transponder and remote buttons into one housing.

Smart / proximity key

Many push-button-start vehicles use a proximity credential rather than inserting a traditional ignition key. Compatible replacement and programming depend on the exact vehicle system.
