If you're seeking a more secure method of locking and unlocking your vehicle consider the Land Rover Activity Key. The wristband that you wear replaces your traditional key fob and allows you to live a full lifestyle without worrying that it could be lost or forgotten.
For the new Land Rover and Range Rover models, the Activity Key is an optional feature that can be used in conjunction with your conventional smart key fob to lock and unlock your vehicle.
