Default Activity key

Searched but didn't see anything. Didn't see anything searching online either. I have used this in the Discovery, supposed to be out for the Defender too. In "2020". It was in the First Edition only for Discovery, but doesn't say the same for the Defender. Does anyone have this? Seems to be an updated version though, with a watch face on it.

My understanding is that the "new" activity key can be added to any NAS Defender equipped with keyless entry (in other markets you may need a separate module installed.) It needs to be programmed into the system by your dealer, who may add a fee for that besides the cost of the key itself. Don't know how the key charges via USB, but if it's a proprietary charger it would be really retarded of Land Rover not to include it with the key, as the description seems to imply... We'll see, I am ordering one for my 2020 ad it was not yet an available option when I ordered mine early last year.

That would be good news if it could be used for any. I asked my dealership, they had no clue. Nor could they get one. I can't seem to find one online, must not been released yet. Even though it says 2020.

I have had the same experience as USMC Denver. It was on the list but removed when I made my order last Spring. The dealership says it is not available so I wait and watch

Here is a video that shows off the new activity key a little bit.


In the comments the guy said he was going to make another video to show more detail.

We asked when we bought ours, he didn't know anything about it. But maybe that's changed now. We're going to swing by this week, we'll ask then too.

We do a lot of hiking, theme parks, etc. Be really nice. Once it was so cold my key fob wouldn't unlock the door on my car after being gone several hours. Had to warm it up first, pretty annoying when tired and cold.
