Samsung will soon allow users to unlock their Mahindra electric SUVs in India directly from their Galaxy devices using the new Digital Key functionality in Samsung Wallet, the South Korean tech giant announced during an event on Wednesday. Users can also choose to share Digital Car keys to their Mahindra EVs for a limited period, giving other users temporary access to the vehicle. This can potentially eliminate the need for carrying a physical car key everywhere. This comes nearly a year after the Indian automotive giant launched its BE 6 and XEV 9e range of electric vehicles in the country.

Samsung Wallet Will Allow Users to Create a Digital Car Key for Their Mahindra eSUV

The South Korean tech giant will soon add its Digital Car Key feature to the Samsung Wallet appfor users in India. This feature will initially be compatible with select Mahindra Electric Origin SUVs in the country. The Digital Car Key functionality was demonstrated by Samsung on the Mahindra BE 6 during an event in Bengaluru.

Apart from locking and unlocking their Mahindra eSUVs, the Samsung Wallet app's Digital Car Key functionality will also allow users to start their vehicles using a paired Galaxy device. The functionality will also allow users to share the Digital Car Key to their EV with friends and family members for a limited time. Access to the vehicle can be managed within the Samsung Wallet app.

If the Galaxy device with the Digital Car Key is misplaced or stolen, the tech giant will also let users remotely lock their phones, delete their data, and the Digital Car Key using the Samsung Find service. For security, the Samsung Wallet will supports biometric or PIN-based user authentication support. This can protect others from gaining unauthorised access to their Mahindra eSUV and its corresponding digital key.

Recently, the Samsung Wallet app was also updated to display live activities for flights, train trips, and events, according to a report. It is shown to display information on the always-on display and lock screen of the phone. Moreover, users can also choose to pin the status to the top of the screen next to the time.
