Car manufacturers added a new option to car keys

A new button is appearing on the keys of some modern cars, the purpose of which many drivers are unaware of.

If you press it for 5 seconds while near the car, the engine will start remotely together with the climate control system. The function automatically switches off after 10 minutes to prevent accidental use.

For those whose keys have this option (for example, the recently updated BYD ATTO 3), manufacturers recommend activating it about 5 minutes before getting in, so that the cabin has time to warm up or cool down to a comfortable temperature.
