What is the Audi Advanced Key?
Audi is a firm believer in comfort and convenience. That's why all new models in our showroom include keyless entry and starting. This technology allows you to get into your car and start driving, while keeping the key fob in your purse or pocket.

1. Proximity Detection
An Audi with proximity detection allows you to start and enter your car without ever having to take the key out of your purse or pocket. This system allows you to unlock your car's doors, trunk and engine by a single click of the sensor button on the key.
A proximity sensor that is based on sound, also known as a capacitive proximity sensor uses acoustic waves to detect the presence of objects in close proximity. The sensors generate an electrical signal by using an oscillator. This signal is then transmitted into the air by a microphone which converts it into an audio file. The audio files are examined to determine the degree of similarity and how close they are. When they are within a certain distance, the system will send a wake-up message to the key. It will also send an ID signal to the vehicle.
Proximity detection is just the beginning of an easier and more enjoyable driving experience. The Audi advanced key also has a remote start capability which lets you start your car's engine from outside of the range of your key's FOB.
