Remote keyless entry system

If you want to drive your Bentley Bentayga car without having to fumble around for keys, you'll require a remote keyless entry system.

The receiver then triggers the ignition and locks of your car to unlock. The remote lets you manage the lights and climate of your vehicle. It's an excellent way to avoid the frustration of having to dig your keys out of your pocket in the dark.

The theft was most likely the result of an attack that fools the car's electronics to believe that the key fob is present.

Bentley keys aren't copied as easily. They require a specific key programmer, which can only be purchased from a Bentley dealer or a licensed locksmith. This is because the new key has to be capable of communicating with the vehicle's main computer and reject the original key.

Bluetooth connectivity
