Apple is set to revolutionize car ownership for Tata EV users, introducing its highly anticipated CarKey feature. According to a recent MacRumors report citing Apple backend data, Tata EV vehicles are now on the internal list for Apple CarKey integration. This means owners will soon be able to seamlessly unlock and start their electric cars using just an iPhone or Apple Watch. This groundbreaking technology, first released in 2022, effectively replaces traditional physical key fobs, offering unparalleled convenience and security. The Apple CarKey Tata EV integration leverages NFC technology.

Users simply hold their compatible device, an iPhone 11 or later, or an Apple Watch Series 6 or later, near the car’s door handle. For newer Tata EV models equipped with ultra-wideband (UWB) technology, the car can even unlock automatically as you approach it and start when you’re inside, all without removing your phone from your pocket. Furthermore, Apple allows users to securely share digital car keys via AirDrop or messaging apps, complete with customizable permissions for recipients.

While specific Tata EV models aren’t yet revealed, this move aligns with Apple’s broader initiative to bring CarKey support to leading automotive brands globally, significantly enhancing the connected driving experience in India.
