G+D Mobile Security has won XPENG Motors as a new customer. The Chinese manufacturer of electric cars will equip its new production vehicle with a digital smart car key. Key elements of the technologies, solutions, services and infrastructure are delivered by G+D.
The next-generation model of XPENG Motors, a highly intelligent and high-performance coupe named P7, will be available in China with the DCK (Digital Car Key) service from G+D Mobile Security. Buyers receive two NFC (Near Field Communication) cards as digital keys with which they can open, turn on and turn off the vehicle. This makes a conventional physical car key obsolete. G+D’s DCK system is also integrated into Xiaomi’s NFC solution, allowing P7 drivers to receive and share their digital car keys via their Xiaomi smartphone and mobile network.
The XPENG P7 will be presented to a broad specialist audience for the first time at Auto Shanghai 2019 from April 16-25.
“The range of applications for mobile devices is growing continuously, and the digital car key is another example of a dynamically developing market. G+D Mobile Security is broadly positioned in this area and supports digital car key solutions in various form factors such as wearables, smartphones or NFC cards and via various access technologies such as passive entry passive start, Bluetooth low energy or NFC,” said Alois Kliner, divisional head Digital Enterprise Security at G+D Mobile Security.
